The aim of this study was to examine REEP1 mutation spectrum and genotype/phenotype correlation for hereditary spastic paraplegia type 31
Abstract:
Mutations in the receptor expression enhancing protein 1 (REEP1) have recently been reported to cause autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) type SPG31. In a large collaborative effort, we screened a sample of 535 unrelated HSP patients for REEP1 mutations and copy number variations. We identified 13 novel and 2 known REEP1 mutations in 16 familial and sporadic patients more...

This case report discusses a case where an antenatal scan showed a cerebral vessel dilatation consistent with a vein of Galen malformation
Abstract:
We report a case where an antenatal scan showed a cerebral vessel dilatation consistent with a vein of Galen malformation (VGAM). After delivery the diagnosis was confirmed on MRI scan. The infant's condition was stable in relation to the two important clinical indicators, mainly not in congestive cardiac failure and no hydrocephalus. The vein of Galen assessment score as used in more...
