Autosomal Recessive Spastic Paraplegia Type 39
Autosomal Recessive Spastic Paraplegia 39

Presentation

HSP is classified according to the clinical phenotype as either pure or complex, the latter presenting with neurological and systemic impairments in addition to spastic paraparesis. [journals.lww.com]

CASE PRESENTATION: We describe a Chinese family with ARHSP-TCC. Two daughters of this family presented with a spastic gait and cognitive impairment. Brain imaging of the index patient revealed a thin corpus callosum. [hspersunite.org.au]

If the production of the normal or the abnormal transcript were gender dependent, it might provide an explanation for the sex difference observed in the present family. [jmg.bmj.com]

  • Hyperreflexia

    […] spastic paraplegia 2017 Billable/Specific Code Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP) comprise a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by varying degrees of lower limb spasticity, pyramidal weakness, hyperreflexia [medicbind.com]

    People with spastic paraplegia type 31 can also experience progressive muscle wasting (amyotrophy) in the lower limbs, exaggerated reflexes (hyperreflexia), a decreased ability to feel vibrations, reduced bladder control, and high-arched feet ( pes cavus [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]

    Hyperreflexia of the lower as well as the upper limbs was also observed. Brain MRI findings were similar to that of patient II3. [omicsonline.org]

  • Babinski Sign

    Neurological examination disclosed mild spasticity and weakness in the legs, hyperreflexia in all limbs, and bilateral Babinski sign. [bmcmedgenet.biomedcentral.com]

    Examination at the age of 22 years after a traffic accident revealed failure of abduction of the left eye, hyperreflexia in all four extremities and Babinski sign. [journals.plos.org]

    Detailed neurological examination showed predominantly bilateral proximal pronounced paresis (3/4) of the lower limbs with hyperreflexia and positive bilateral Babinski sign. He also complains about urinary urgency. [omicsonline.org]

    In pure forms, clinical features consist of isolated pyramidal signs, such as brisk reflexes, Babinski sign, spasticity and motor deficit, which can be associated with sphincter disturbances and deep sensory loss. [academic.oup.com]

  • Abnormal Gait

    Furthermore, among the core symptoms of HSP are also included abnormal gait and difficulty in walking, decreased vibratory sense at the ankles, and paresthesia.[8] Individuals with HSP can experience extreme fatigue associated with central nervous system [en.wikipedia.org]

    […] examination, and (4) definitely affected with abnormal gait and neurological examination. [jmg.bmj.com]

Workup

Our findings confirm that this is indeed not an uncommon presentation of this disorder and we suggest that SPG7 gene analysis should be included in the diagnostic workup of autosomal recessive PEO, especially if spasticity is present. [journals.plos.org]

Prognosis

Abstract Although SPG11 is the most common complicated hereditary spastic paraplegia, our knowledge of the long-term prognosis and life expectancy is limited. [nature.com]

Prognosis: predicting symptoms and course of HSP As noted above, there is significant variation in HSP symptoms and their severity. This limits the certainty of making predictions. [rarediseases.org]

[citation needed] Prognosis[edit] Although HSP is a progressive condition, the prognosis for individuals with HSP varies greatly. It primarily affects the legs although there can be some upperbody involvement in some individuals. [en.wikipedia.org]

[…] inversely correlated with quality of life in a previous study. 31 As the majority of patients in our cohort who met the clinical criteria for HSP did not have a genetic diagnosis, this illustrates the need for studies of clinical parameters which influence prognosis [ng.neurology.org]

Etiology

Accordingly, plasma oxysterols are biomarkers that should be included in the screening of any spastic paraplegia of unknown etiology. [oxfordmedicine.com]

Pathophysiology

POLR3A 10q22.3 Autosomal recessive Pathophysiology[edit] The major feature of HSP is a length-dependent axonal degeneration.[19] These include the crossed and uncrossed corticospinal tracts to the legs and fasciculus gracilis. [en.wikipedia.org]

Koenig[ 10 ] proposed a classification of ARCA based on topographical and pathophysiological criteria, while in the next year the group of Filla proposed a pathogenic classification of the hereditary ataxias[ 11 ]. [wjgnet.com]

This is the first step towards the identification of a new gene crucial for understanding the underlying pathophysiology of HSP. [academic.oup.com]

Prevention

[citation needed] Treatment[edit] No specific treatment is known that would prevent, slow, or reverse HSP. Available therapies mainly consist of symptomatic medical management and promoting physical and emotional well-being. [en.wikipedia.org]

Prevention of Secondary Complications Daily physical therapy is recommended to maintain and improve coordination, muscle strength, and gait; reduce spasticity; and prevent contractures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
