Pontocerebellar Hypoplasia Type 5

Description

Pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 5 (PCH5) is a very rare severe form of PCH (see this terme) with prenatal onset and characterized by fetal onset of clonus or seizures-like activity persisting in infancy and microencephaly leading to early postnatal death. There is significant overlap both in phenotype and in genotype between pontocerebellar hypoplasia types 4 and 5.
