Background: Mucolipidosis type IV is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease of unknown etiology. Patients develop corneal clouding, retinal degeneration, spastic quadriparesis, and mental retardation. [n.neurology.org]

The etiology of these disorders remains elusive, but evidence suggests a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors ( 353 ). [doi.org]

The discussion covers the phenotype spectrum, epidemiology, mode of inheritance, pathogenesis, and clinical profile of each condition, all of which is accompanied by a wealth of illustrations. [books.google.de]
