Spastic ataxia (finding) Interprets True Muscle tone Inferred relationship Some 1
A rare multiple congenital anomalies/dysmorphic syndrome characterized by pontocerebellar hypoplasia, hypotonia and respiratory insufficiency. Cardiac anomalies (particularly hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), eye manifestations (congenital cataracts, corneal clouding), seizures and facial dysmorphism (including microcephaly, bitemporal narrowing, absence of eyelashes, short palpebral fissures, small and low-set ears, anteverted nares, microstomia, and micrognathia) are present in the majority of the patients. Additional findings such as hepatosplenomegaly, edema, micropenis/cryptorchidism, hypoglycemia, hypernatremia, increased triglycerides, elevated plasma lactate and decreased plasma cholesterol were reported. Brain imaging may reveal simplified/delayed cortical gyration, dilated ventricles, and periventricular or diffuse white matter abnormalities. It is mostly caused by biallelic deletions in the ATAD3 gene cluster (ATAD3A, ATAD3B and ATAD3C) or by point mutations in the ATAD3A gene. Even though the syndrome is mostly neonatally lethal, some patients, regardless of the type of the mutation/deletion they harbor, may have a less severe condition and may survive.
