    Patient #41 Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome
    1. Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome and Wilson's disease may be reliably distinguished on the basis of WHICH of the following clinical features:
    A. Bulbar onset and predominance of extrapyramidal features
    B. Predominance of dystonia in Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome
    C. Predominance of ataxia in Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome
    D. Autosomal recessive inheritance pattern
    E. None of the above

    2. Which of the following statements is MOST correct?
    A. In Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome, lenticular degeneration results from excessive systemic iron accumulation.
    B. Iron chelating agents may produce significant clinical improvements in patients with the Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome.
    C. The excessive iron accumulation observed in patients with Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome may be secondary to injury of the striatum or other basal ganglia by the disease process.
    D. MRI evidence of excessive iron accumulation in the globus pallidus or putamen is rarely observed in patients with diagnoses other than Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome.

    3. Which of the following clinical features in a child would be MOST suggestive of a diagnosis of Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome?

    25. Patient 41 Test Answer 5e
    Patient 41 Question 5 hallervordenspatz syndrome Early in the course ofthe disease, the MRI in hallervorden-spatz syndrome may be normal.
    http://www.bcm.tmc.edu/neurol/challeng/pat41/answer5e.html
    Patient #41 Question 5
    Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome
    You answered (E). The correct answer is (A).
    A well-documented maternal inheritance pattern would be highly suggestive of a mitochondrial disorder, whereas the Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion. Early in the course of the disease, the MRI in Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome may be normal. The Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome has been described in families from diverse ethnic backgrounds. The appearance of cognitive dysfunction, while frequent, may lag behind the appearance of motor symptoms by many years. Corticospinal signs are often evident in patients with the Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome, although spasticity is usually not the dominant manifestation of the disorder.

Its features include extrapyramidal dysfunction, onset during the first two decades of life, and progression of signs and symptoms. HSS is characterized pathologically by massive iron deposits in the basal ganglia, specifically the globus pallidus and substantia nigra pars reticulata. We have mapped a gene for Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome to chromosome 20p12.3-p13 in 20 unrelated and ethnically diverse families, indicating a single major locus (designated NBIA1, neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation, type 1) for this disease.

    FINAL DIAGNOSIS: NEURODEGENERATION WITH AXONAL SPHEROIDS AND IRON DEPOSITION (NEURODEGENERATION WITH BRAIN IRON ACCUMULATION 1; HALLERVORDEN-SPATZ DISEASE). DISCUSSION Hallervorden-Spatz disease (HSD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease first described in two sisters in 1922 (1). The onset of symptoms is during the first two decades of life and mean survival is approximately 11 years; The clinical features may include progressive motor disorder characterized mainly by "extrapyramidal" signs, typically dystonia, choreoathetosis, tremor, dysarthria, muscular rigidity, and mental deterioration evolving to dementia. Other clinical features may include seizures, corticospinal tract involvement with spasticity and retinitis pigmentosa (2). Approximately one half of HSD cases are familial with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Recently a locus harboring the putative HSD gene was identified, by homozygocity mapping, on chromosome 20p12.3-p13. (3). Adult-onset HSD cases have been described and in rare cases acanthocytosis is also present. HSD-like cases with acanthocytosis, retinitis pigmentosa and pallidal degeneration with or without hypoprebetalipoproteinemia, have also been described (4, 5). Clinical criteria have been proposed to aid in the diagnosis of HSD but it is often difficult to arrive at the correct diagnosis without postmortem brain examination (6, 7). There is, currently, no treatment for HSD and management is directed at controlling specific symptoms.

    Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome (HSS) (OMIM #234200) is a rare, autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder with brain iron accumulation as a prominent finding. Clinical features include extrapyramidal dysfunction, onset in childhood, and a relentlessly progressive course . Histologic study reveals massive iron deposits in the basal ganglia. Systemic and cerebrospinal fluid iron levels are normal, as are plasma levels of ferritin, transferrin and ceruloplasmin. Conversely, in disorders of systemic iron overload, such as haemochromatosis, brain iron is not increased, which suggests that fundamental differences exist between brain and systemic iron metabolism and transport. In normal brain, non-haem iron accumulates regionally and is highest in basal ganglia . Pathologic brain iron accumulation is seen in common disorders, including Parkinson's disease
