EARLY-ONSET PROGRESSIVE DIFFUSE BRAIN ATROPHY-MICROCEPHALY-MUSCLE WEAKNESS-OPTIC ATROPHY SYNDROME

Description

PEBAT is an autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by severely delayed psychomotor development apparent soon after birth or in infancy, profound intellectual disability, poor or absent speech, and seizures. Most patients are never able to walk due to hypotonia or spasticity. Brain imaging shows cerebral and cerebellar atrophy, thin corpus callosum, and secondary hypomyelination. The disorder shows progressive features, including microcephaly, consistent with a neurodegenerative process (summary by Miyake et al., 2016; Flex et al., 2016).

Most common symptoms of EARLY-ONSET PROGRESSIVE DIFFUSE BRAIN ATROPHY-MICROCEPHALY-MUSCLE WEAKNESS-OPTIC ATROPHY SYNDROME

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Microcephaly
