LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY WITH MILD CEREBELLAR ATAXIA AND WHITE MATTER EDEMA

Description

Leukoencephalopathy with ataxia is an autosomal recessive neurologic disorder with a characteristic pattern of white matter abnormalities on brain MRI. Affected individuals have prominent signal abnormalities and decreased apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in the posterior limbs of the internal capsules, middle cerebral peduncles, pyramidal tracts in the pons, and middle cerebellar peduncles. The findings suggest myelin microvacuolation restricted to certain brain regions. Clinical features include ataxia and unstable gait; more variable abnormalities may include visual field defects, headaches, and learning disabilities (summary by Depienne et al., 2013).

Most common symptoms of LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY WITH MILD CEREBELLAR ATAXIA AND WHITE MATTER EDEMA

  • Seizures
  • Ataxia
  • Spasticity
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Headache

JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY

Alternate names

JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY Is also known as janz syndrome, juvenile myoclonus epilepsy, jme, myoclonic epilepsy, juvenile, petit mal, impulsive

Description

Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy is the most common hereditary idiopathic generalized epilepsy syndrome and is characterized by myoclonic jerks of the upper limbs on awakening, generalized tonic-clonic seizures manifesting during adolescence and triggered by sleep deprivation, alcohol intake, and cognitive activities, and typical absence seizures (30% of cases).

Most common symptoms of JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Depressivity
  • Myoclonus
  • Aggressive behavior
