REFSUM DISEASE

Alternate names

REFSUM DISEASE Is also known as hmsn 4, phytanic-coa hydroxylase deficiency, heredopathia atactica polyneuritiformis, classic refsum disease, hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type 4, adult refsum disease

Description

Refsum disease (RD) is a very rare, clinically variable, multisystemic metabolic disease, characterized by anosmia, early-onset retinitis pigmentosa and possible neurological manifestations, including neuropathy, and cerebellar ataxia, deafness, ichthyosis, skeletal abnormalities, and cardiac arrhythmia. It is characterized biochemically by accumulation of phytanic acid in plasma and tissues.

Most common symptoms of REFSUM DISEASE

  • Ataxia
  • Nystagmus
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment
  • Muscular hypotonia
  • Cataract

REFSUM DISEASE, CLASSIC

Alternate names

REFSUM DISEASE, CLASSIC Is also known as heredopathia atactica polyneuritiformis, hmsn iv, phytanic acid oxidase deficiency, hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy iv, hmsn4, refsum disease, adult, 1

Description

Refsum disease is an autosomal recessive inborn error of lipid metabolism classically characterized by a tetrad of clinical abnormalities: retinitis pigmentosa, peripheral neuropathy, cerebellar ataxia, and elevated protein levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) without an increase in the number of cells. However, not all patients show all these features. All patients have accumulation of an unusual branched-chain fatty acid, phytanic acid, in blood and tissues. Other variable features include cardiac dysfunction, nerve deafness, ichthyosis, and multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (review by Skjeldal et al., 1987).Increased levels of phytanic acid can also be found in peroxisomal biogenesis disorders; see Zellweger syndrome (see {214100}) (Skjeldal et al., 1987).Infantile Refsum disease (see PBD1B, {601539}) is a distinct disorder with a different phenotype and genetic basis.A phenotype clinically indistinguishable from that of classic Refsum disease (PBD9B ), but with a different biochemical profile, can be caused by mutation in the gene encoding peroxin-7 (PEX7 ) on chromosome 6q.

Most common symptoms of REFSUM DISEASE, CLASSIC

  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Hearing impairment
  • Ataxia
  • Nystagmus
