Ataxia, and Retinal dystrophy

Low match CLN11 DISEASE

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis-11 is an autosomal recessive neurologic disorder characterized by rapidly progressive visual loss due to retinal dystrophy, seizures, cerebellar ataxia, and cerebellar atrophy. Cognitive decline may also occur (summary by Smith et al., 2012).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of CLN, see CLN1 (OMIM ).

Low match ATAXIA-HYPOGONADISM-CHOROIDAL DYSTROPHY SYNDROME

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).

Low match JOUBERT SYNDROME 33; JBTS33

Joubert syndrome represents a classic ciliopathy characterized by hypotonia, ataxia, cognitive impairment, and a distinctive brain malformation, the 'molar tooth sign.' In addition, retinal dystrophy, cystic kidney disease, liver fibrosis, and polydactyly occur in a subset of patients (summary by Wheway et al., 2015).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Joubert syndrome, see JBTS1 (OMIM ).

Usher syndrome type III is characterized by postlingual, progressive hearing loss, variable vestibular dysfunction, and onset of retinitis pigmentosa symptoms, including nyctalopia, constriction of the visual fields, and loss of central visual acuity, usually by the second decade of life (Karjalainen et al., 1985; Pakarinen et al., 1995).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of type III Usher syndrome, see USH3A (OMIM ).

Genetic Heterogeneity of Usher syndrome Type IIIUsher syndrome type IIIB (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the HARS gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 5q31.3.

Low match ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA; ABL

Abetalipoproteinemia and familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FBHL ) are rare diseases characterized by hypocholesterolemia and malabsorption of lipid-soluble vitamins leading to retinal degeneration, neuropathy, and coagulopathy. Hepatic steatosis is also common. The root cause of both disorders is improper packaging and secretion of apolipoprotein B-containing particles. Obligate heterozygous parents of ABL patients usually have normal lipids consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance, whereas obligate heterozygous parents of FBHL patients typically have half normal levels of apoB-containing lipoproteins consistent with autosomal codominant inheritance (summary by Lee and Hegele, 2014).

Low match ATAXIA-INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY-OCULOMOTOR APRAXIA-CEREBELLAR CYSTS SYNDROME

Ataxia-intellectual disability-oculomotor apraxia-cerebellar cysts syndrome is a rare neuro-ophthalmological disease characterized by nonprogressive cerebellar ataxia, delayed motor and language development and intellectual disability, in addition to ophthalmological abnormalities (e.g. oculomotor apraxia, strabismus, amblyopia, retinal dystrophy and myopia). Cerebellar cysts, cerebellar dysplasia and cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, seen on magnetic resonance imaging, are also characteristic of the disease.
