Office of Rare Diseases Rare Diseases List An orphan or rare disease is generally considered to have a prevalence of less than 200,000 affected individuals in the USA. Certain diseases with more than 200,000 affected individuals are included but subpopulations of these conditions may be less than the prevalence standard for rare disease. This list includes rare diseases and conditions for which information requests have been made to the Office of Rare Diseases. It is updated on a regular basis. We welcome suggestions for additions to the list and your recommendations may be sent via email to: ord@od.nih.gov Please Note: The names of the conditions (listed in alphabetical order) may not necessarily be the most frequently used ones. Clicking on one of the names below will take you to a page that contains information specific for that disease. The links on that page will take you to several sources of information, including: ClinicalTrials.gov, an NIH site that lists ongoing clinical trials; Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), an NIH site authored and edited by Johns Hopkins University, with information on specific genetic diseases; and

Alpers' disease is a rare, progressive neurodegenerative disease of the brain that occurs in infants and children. It is an autosomal recessive disorder that is sometimes seen in siblings. First signs of the disease, which include intractable seizures and failure to meet meaningful developmental milestones, usually occur in infancy. Primary symptoms of the disease are developmental delay, progressive mental retardation, hypotonia (low muscle tone), spasticity (stiffness of the limbs), and dementia. Seizures may include epilepsia partialis continua, a type of seizure that consists of repeated myoclonic (muscle) jerks. Optic atrophy may also occur, often leading to blindness. And, although physical signs of chronic liver dysfunction may not be present, many patients suffer liver impairment leading to liver failure. While some researchers believe that Alpers' disease is caused by an underlying metabolic defect, no consistent defect has been identified.

Associated persons: Bernard Jacob Alpers Erna Christensen Knud Haraldsen Krabbe Description: A rare degenerative disease of the brain, predominantly involving the grey matter. It is characterised by acute onset of severe convulsions leading to rapid intellectual and bodily breakdown. Other characteristics are blindness and deafness, myoclonus, spasticity, choroathetosis, cerebellar ataxia, growth retardation, and terminal decortication. Manifests in early childhood and usually causes death within months. In its familial form, the disorder is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. Alpers’ disease was first recognized by Alfons Maria Jakob (1884-1931), and accounts of this were published by three of his students, Souza (Madrid), Freedom (Baltimore), and Alpers in Philadelphia. The eponymic term Alper's disease was introduced by Blackwood, et al in 1963.
