OVARIOLEUKODYSTROPHY
LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY WITH VANISHING WHITE MATTER; VWM
Alternate names
LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY WITH VANISHING WHITE MATTER; VWM Is also known as cach, cle, childhood ataxia with central nervous system hypomyelinization, cree leukoencephalopathy, vanishing white matter leukodystrophy
Description
Vanishing white matter leukodystrophy is an autosomal recessive neurologic disorder characterized by variable neurologic features, including progressive cerebellar ataxia, spasticity, and cognitive impairment associated with white matter lesions on brain imaging. The age at onset can range from early infancy to adulthood. Rapid neurologic deterioration can occur following minor head trauma. Female mutation carriers may develop ovarian failure, manifest as primary amenorrhea or as secondary amenorrhea lasting more than 6 months, associated with elevated gonadotropin levels at age less than 40 years (summary by Van der Knaap et al., 1998 and Schiffmann et al., 1997).
Most common symptoms of LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY WITH VANISHING WHITE MATTER; VWM
- Seizures
- Generalized hypotonia
- Ataxia
- Muscle weakness
- Muscular hypotonia
