AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA TYPE 57

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA TYPE 57 Is also known as spastic paraplegia due to partial tfg deficiency, spg57

Description

Autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia type 57 (SPG57) is an extremely rare, complex type of hereditary spastic paraplegia, characterized by onset in infancy of pronounced leg spasticity (leading to the inability to walk independently), reduced visual acuity due to optic atrophy, and distal wasting of the hands and feet due to an axonal demyelinating sensorimotor neuropathy. SPG57 is caused by mutations in the TFG gene (3q12.2) encoding protein TFG, which is thought to play a role in ER microtubular architecture and function.

Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA TYPE 57

  • Intellectual disability
  • Spasticity
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Hyperreflexia
  • Optic atrophy

HEREDITARY MOTOR AND SENSORY NEUROPATHY, OKINAWA TYPE

Alternate names

HEREDITARY MOTOR AND SENSORY NEUROPATHY, OKINAWA TYPE Is also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, proximal type, formerly, hmsnp, formerly, hmsnp, hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, proximal type

Description

Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, Okinawa type is a rare, genetic, axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by the adult-onset of slowly progressive, symmetric, proximal dominant muscle weakness and atrophy, painful muscle cramps, fasciculations and distal sensory impairment, mostly (but not exclusively) in individuals (and their descendents) from the Okinawa region in Japan. Absent deep tendon reflexes, elevated creatine kinase levels and autosomal dominant inheritance are also characteristic.

Most common symptoms of HEREDITARY MOTOR AND SENSORY NEUROPATHY, OKINAWA TYPE

  • Muscle weakness
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Skeletal muscle atrophy
  • Tremor
  • Gait disturbance

DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CARCINOMA Is also known as well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, pact, tpc, nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma, papillary, papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma, papillary carcinoma of thyroid, familial nonmedullary thyroid cancer, papillary, ptc

Description

Differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), also known as papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma, is a slow-growing malignancy usually presenting in adults as an asymptomatic thyroid mass.

Most common symptoms of DIFFERENTIATED THYROID CARCINOMA

  • Neoplasm
  • Pain
  • Carcinoma
  • Hoarse voice
  • Goiter

EXTRASKELETAL MYXOID CHONDROSARCOMA

Alternate names

EXTRASKELETAL MYXOID CHONDROSARCOMA Is also known as emc

Description

Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of chondroblastic origin. The tumors are most commonly found in middle-aged and elderly individuals, are more common among men, and are often detected as deep-seated lesions in the extremities. Despite their relatively low-grade malignancy, recurrence and metastasis may appear many years after the initial diagnosis. Histologic tissue section examination reveals a mixture of cellular and myxoid stromal components (Panagopoulos et al., 2002).

Most common symptoms of EXTRASKELETAL MYXOID CHONDROSARCOMA

  • Neoplasm
  • Chondrosarcoma
  • Soft tissue neoplasm
