Genetic analysis of 17 presumptively diagnosed patients revealed one case of ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 1 (AOA1); one ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2); two types of autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA5, SCA29); two CACNA1A-related ataxias; one microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or mental retardation (MCLMR); and one autosomal dominant KIF1A-related disorder with intellectual deficit, cerebellar atrophy, spastic paraparesis, and optic nerve atrophy.The diagnostic yield was 58.8%.
Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cerebellar atrophy, peripheral neuropathy and oculomotor apraxia.
Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) is a rare autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia characterized by onset between 10 and 20 years of age and a range of neurological features that include progressive cerebellar atrophy, axonal sensorimotor neuropathy, oculomotor apraxia in a majority of patients, and elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP).
Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia (AOA) type 2 (AOA2 MIM 606002) is a recessive subtype of AOA characterized by cerebellar atrophy, oculomotor apraxia, early loss of reflexes, and peripheral neuropathy.
Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) is characterized by onset between age 10 and 22 years, cerebellar atrophy, peripheral neuropathy, oculomotor apraxia (OMA), and elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels.
