Pediatric Myoclonus-Dystonia misdiagnosed as CASPR2 encephalitis – a diagnostic challenge
Objective: Describe the clinical/laboratory challenges in diagnosis of myoclonus-dystonia at a young age Background: SGCE Myoclonus-Dystonia (SGCE-M-D) is a genetic movement disorder characterized by multifocal…Late Onset Ataxia, Myoclonus, and Cognitive Decline in a Patient with Xeroderma Pigmentosum: A Case Report
Objective: To present a case of late onset neurologic symptoms of ataxia, myoclonus, and cognitive impairment in a 37-year-old man with xeroderma pigmentosum (XP). Background:…The Spectrum of Movement Disorders Associated With NUS1 Pathogenic Variants
Objective: To explore the phenotype of NUS1-related disorders and determine the spectrum of movement disorders in patients with NUS1 pathogenic variants. Background: A growing body…Two cases of myoclonic ataxia with and without epilepsy associated with NUS1
Objective: To describe two cases of myoclonic ataxia due to two novel NUS1 pathogenic variants Background: The genetic bases of myoclonus is not well defined. Myoclonus is…Progressive ataxia and palatal tremor due to a novel heterozygous GRIN2A mutation
Objective: Describe the case of a patient with adult-onset progressive ataxia and palatal tremor (PAPT) in association with a novel heterozygous mutation of the GRIN2A…BRAT1 associated neurodegeneration and review of literature
Objective: To describe the phenotype and genotype of a Mexican patient with epilepsy, mioclono and ataxia with a heterozygote polymorphism in the BRAT1 gene c.453_454insATCTTCTC…Founder effect in (TTTTA)exp(TTTCA)exp and pure (TTTTA)exp in familial cortical myoclonic tremor with epilepsy type 1-SAMD12 locus
Objective: To detect the founder effect between familial cortical myoclonic tremor with epilepsy type 1 (FCMTE1) patients with (TTTTA)exp(TTTCA)exp (exp, expansion) in SAMD12 and healthy controls with…Intergenerational repeat instability of TTTCA expansions in SAMD12 might be the major cause of the genetic anticipation in familial cortical myoclonic tremor with epilepsy
Objective: To delineate and analyze the relationship between genetic and clinical features in 78 patients from 23 familial cortical myoclonic tremor with epilepsy type 1 (FCMTE1) pedigrees. Background:…Ataxia and action myoclonus with biallelic mutations in ATP13A2 gene
Objective: Here we report a patient with late-onset ataxia-myoclonus syndrome harboring mutations in the ATP13A2 gene. Background: Mutations in ATP13A2 gene have been causally associated…A case report of myoclonus-dystonia with isolated myoclonus phenotype and novel mutation successfully treated with deep brain stimulation
Objective: Report the case of a patient with a novel SGCE gene mutation and isolated myoclonus phenotype who was successfully treated with deep brain stimulation…
