Basal Ganglia Calcification, Idiopathic, 6; Ibgc6

Description

Idiopathic basal ganglia calcification is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by adult onset of progressive neuropsychiatric and movement disorders, although some patients remain asymptomatic. Clinical features can include dystonia, parkinsonism, gait abnormalities, psychosis, dementia, and chorea. Brain imaging shows calcifications of the basal ganglia and other brain regions (summary by Legati et al., 2015).For a detailed phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of IBGC, see IBGC1 (OMIM ).
