Preferred Label : Thiamine metabolism dysfunction syndrome 4 (bilateral striatal degeneration and progressive polyneuropathy type);

Symbol : THMD4;

CISMeF acronym : THMD4;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Bilateral striatal degeneration and progressive polyneuropathy; Striatal necrosis, bilateral, and progressive polyneuropathy;

Description : Thiamine metabolism dysfunction syndrome-4 is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder characterized by childhood onset of episodic encephalopathy, often associated with a febrile illness, and causing transient neurologic dysfunction. Most patients recover fully, but some may have mild residual weakness. Affected individuals also develop a slowly progressive axonal polyneuropathy beginning in childhood. Brain imaging during the acute episodes shows lesions consistent with bilateral striatal degeneration or necrosis (summary by Spiegel et al., 2009). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of disorders due to thiamine metabolism dysfunction, see THMD1 (249270).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the solute carrier family 25 (mitochondrial thiamine pyrophosphate carrier), member 19 gene (SLC25A19, 606521.0002);

Laboratory abnormalities : Increased CSF lactate during acute episodes;

Prefixed ID : #613710;
