Extractions: A nineteen-year-old boy presented with dystonia, slowly progressing since the age of 5 years. On examination, the patient was depressed and had dystonia and tremors. He had no cranial nerve palsies and his fundi were normal. Hematological examination was normal with no acanthocytosis. MRI was performed (Figs 1, 2). The axial T2 and coronal PD images through basal ganglia show marked hypo intensity of globus pallidus with hyperintense area within. This appearance is referred to as eye of tiger sign and is diagnostic of Hallervorden Spatz Disease (HSD). HSD is a rare neurological disorder, characterized by dystonia, rigidity, retinal degeneration, pyramidal signs and mental deterioration. Criteria for diagnosis of HSD are:

ABSTRACT Background recessive disorder characterized by dystonia, parkinsonism, and iron accumulation in the brain. Many patients with this disease have mutations in the gene encoding pantothenate kinase neurodegeneration. In this study, we compared the clinical and syndrome with and without mutations in Methods One hundred twenty-three patients from 98 families with on the basis of clinical assessment as having classic disease (characterized by early onset with rapid progression) or atypical disease (later onset with slow progression). Their genomic DNA
Extractions: sequence analysis is indicated for individuals with a clinical diagnosis of Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome/pantothenate kinase associated neurodegeneration (PKAN). Mutations in the gene have recently been identified in patients with PKAN . Preliminary findings suggest that about 70% of patients with a clinical diagnosis of PKAN have mutations in the gene while greater than 90% of patients with classical MRI findings have mutations in the gene (Dr. Hayflick, personal communication). Sample specifications: 5 cc of blood in a lavender top/EDTA tube CPT codes: 83891, 83898 x4, 83904 x5, 83912 * Once a mutation is identified, other family members can be tested for the same mutation for a fee of $390 per blood sample (CPT codes: 83891, 83898 x2, 83894, 83912). Please contact UCGS personnel if you wish to discuss the specifics of your case, or if you have any questions.
