ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM-CHOROIDAL DYSTROPHY SYNDROME
Alternate names
ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM-CHOROIDAL DYSTROPHY SYNDROME Is also known as boucher-neuhÄuser syndrome
Description
Ataxia-hypogonadism-choroidal dystrophy syndrome is a very rare autosomal recessive, slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the triad of cerebellar ataxia (that generally manifests at adolescence or early adulthood), chorioretinal dystrophy, which may have a later onset (up to the fifth-sixth decade) leading to variable degrees of visual impairment, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (delayed puberty and lack of secondary sex characteristics). Ataxia-hypogonadism-choroidal dystrophy syndrome belongs to a clinical continuum of neurodegenerative disorders along with the clinically overlapping cerebellar ataxia-hypogonadism syndrome (see this term).
Most common symptoms of ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM-CHOROIDAL DYSTROPHY SYNDROME
- Ataxia
- Hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism
- Chorioretinal dystrophy

CEREBELLAR ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM SYNDROME
Alternate names
CEREBELLAR ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM SYNDROME Is also known as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone deficiency with ataxia, gordon-holmes syndrome
Description
Cerebellar ataxia-hypogonadism syndrome is a very rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the combination of progressive cerebellar ataxia with onset from early childhood to the fourth decade, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (delayed puberty and lack of secondary sex characteristics). Cerebellar ataxia-hypogonadism syndrome belongs to a clinical continuum of neurodegenerative disorders along with clinically overlapping disorders such as ataxia-hypogonadism-choroidal dystrophy syndrome (see this term).
Most common symptoms of CEREBELLAR ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM SYNDROME
- Short stature
- Ataxia
- Nystagmus
- Muscular hypotonia
- Optic atrophy

OLIVER-MCFARLANE SYNDROME; OMCS
Alternate names
OLIVER-MCFARLANE SYNDROME; OMCS Is also known as eyelashes, long, with mental retardation, trichomegaly with mental retardation, dwarfism, and pigmentary degeneration of retina
Description
Oliver-McFarlane syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by trichomegaly, severe chorioretinal atrophy and multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies, including growth hormone (GH ), gonadotropins (see {118860}), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; see {118850}). Thyroid and GH abnormalities may be present at birth and, if untreated, result in intellectual impairment and profound short stature. Congenital hypogonadism occurs in half of patients, and nearly all have documented hypogonadotropic hypogonadism during puberty, with subsequent reproductive dysfunction. Chorioretinal atrophy is typically noted in the first 5 years of life. Half of reported cases have spinocerebellar involvement, including ataxia, spastic paraplegia, and peripheral neuropathy (summary by Hufnagel et al., 2015).Laurence-Moon syndrome (OMIM ) is an allelic disorder with overlapping features.
Most common symptoms of OLIVER-MCFARLANE SYNDROME; OMCS
- Intellectual disability
- Short stature
- Ataxia
- Growth delay
- Nystagmus

LAURENCE-MOON SYNDROME; LNMS
Description
Laurence-Moon syndrome has a clinical presentation similar to that of Oliver-McFarlane syndrome (OMIM ), including chorioretinopathy and pituitary dysfunction, but with childhood onset of ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, and spastic paraplegia and without trichomegaly. Historically, Laurence-Moon syndrome has been associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (see BBS, {209900}) (summary by Hufnagel et al., 2015).Oliver-McFarlane syndrome is an allelic disorder.
Most common symptoms of LAURENCE-MOON SYNDROME; LNMS
- Intellectual disability

- Ataxia
- Growth delay
- Nystagmus

BOUCHER-NEUHAUSER SYNDROME; BNHS
Alternate names
BOUCHER-NEUHAUSER SYNDROME; BNHS Is also known as spinocerebellar ataxia, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and chorioretinal dystrophy
Description
Boucher-Neuhauser syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized classically by the triad of spinocerebellar ataxia, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and visual impairment due to chorioretinal dystrophy. The age at onset is variable, but most patients develop one or more symptoms in the first decade of life. Chorioretinal dystrophy may not always be present. BNHS is part of a spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases associated with mutations in the PNPLA6 gene that also includes spastic paraplegia-39 (SPG39 ) (summary by Synofzik et al., 2014).See also Gordon Holmes syndrome (GDHS ), caused by mutation in the RNF216 gene (OMIM ), which is also characterized by the combination of cerebellar ataxia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
Most common symptoms of BOUCHER-NEUHAUSER SYNDROME; BNHS
- Ataxia
- Spasticity
- Cognitive impairment
- Visual impairment
- Dysarthria
