  • Azorean neurologic disease

    Azorean neurologic disease is one of the 40 types of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA). It is the third type and is called type 3 SCA. Mutations in the gene that codes for the protein ataxin-3 cause the disease. Particularly, the gradual expansion of the CAG repeats is the cause. Normal ataxin-3 is involved in protein homeostasis and cytoskeleton regulation in the central nervous system. The abnormal ataxin protein leads to the los  Read More

  • De lange syndrome

    Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is a rare genetic disorder that is apparent at birth (congenital). Associated symptoms and findings typically include delays in physical development before and after birth (prenatal and postnatal growth retardation); characteristic abnormalities of the head and facial (craniofacial) area, resulting in a distinctive facial appearance; malformations of the hands and arms (upper limbs); and mild to severe mental  Read More

  • Encephalocele

    An uncommon illness called encephalocele that develops before birth (congenital). Typically, the third and fourth weeks of pregnancy are when the brain and spinal cord develop. The neural tube is how they are created. The majority of encephaloceles develop when the neural tube is not completely closed. When the baby's brain, neurological system, and skull are just beginning to form, this should take place. Brain tissue and spi  Read More

  • Epilepsy and multiple subpial transection (mst)

    Epilepsy is a central nervous system (neurological) disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations and sometimes loss of awareness Anyone can develop epilepsy. Epilepsy and multiple subpial transection (MST) affects both males and females of all races, ethnic backgrounds and ages Because epilepsy is caused by abnormal activity in the brain, seiz  Read More

  • Epilepsy: extratemporal cortical resection

    Epilepsy is a central nervous system (neurological) disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations and sometimes loss of awareness . Anyone can develop epilepsy. Epilepsy affects both males and females of all races, ethnic backgrounds and ages ecause epilepsy is caused by abnormal activity in the brain, seizures can affect any process your brain coordinates. Seizure signs and symp  Read More

  • Idiopathic basal ganglia calcification

    Idiopathic basal ganglia calcification is a hereditary, genetic condition marked by abnormal calcium deposits in parts of the brain that regulate movement. Basal ganglia, cerebral, and cortical regions (parts of the brain) have calcium deposits that cause atrophy. Motor and mental problems result from the considerable neuron (brain cell) loss caused by this mineral deposit. There is a paucity of molecular and gene  Read More

  • Infantile epileptic encephalopathy

    The neurological condition known as infantile epileptic encephalopathy is characterized by seizures. The condition typically manifests in infants as epileptic seizures within the first three months of life (most frequently within the first 10 days). Symptoms of infantile epileptic encephalopathy 1. The electroencephalogram (EEG), which gauges the electrical activity of the brain, exhibits EIEE symptom  Read More

  • Opthalmoneuromyelitis

    Opthalmoneuromyelitis, also known as Devic disease, is an acquired condition triggered by autoimmune reactions and certain microbial infections. However, some studies suspect the involvement of genetic factors. It is a rare chronic demyelinating disorder that affects the optic nerve and spinal cord. There are two forms: monophasic and relapsing. Monophasic occurs once that lasts for 30 to 60 days. Whereas it recurs in a relaps  Read More

  • Optic neuromyelitis

    Optic neuromyelitis, also known as Devic's disorder or neuromyelitis optica, is a central nervous system disease that primarily affects the eye and spinal cord. Effects on the eyes are referred to as optic neuritis, whereas those on the spinal cord are called myelitis. The clinical manifestations are blindness in one or both eyes, weakness or paralysis in the legs or arms, painful spasms, loss of sensation, uncontrollable vomi  Read More

  • Upper brachial plexus palsy, erb-duchenn...

    The nerve disorder of upper brachial plexus palsy, erb-duchenne causes weakness or loss of muscle function in the shoulder and arm. Five nerves that run from the spine to the arm and hand are together known as the brachial plexus. Your shoulder, arms, and hands can feel and move thanks to these nerves. Upper brachial plexus palsy, erb-duchenne is the medical term for when these brachial plexus nerves are damaged o  Read More

  • Von recklinghausen's disease

    Tumors develop on nerve tissue as a result of a series of hereditary diseases called von recklinghausen's disease. Anywhere in the neurological system, including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, these tumors can form. Von recklinghausen's disease comes in three different forms: schwannomatosis, neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), and neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2). While NF2 and schwannomatosis are typically detected in early adulthood,  Read More

  • Von recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis

    Risk factors of von recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis These are the risk factors - 1. A family history of von recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis is the main risk factor for the condition. About half of those with NF1 and NF2 received the condition from a parent who had it. People with NF1 and NF2 who do not have affected relatives are more likely to have a novel gene mutation. 2. Both NF  Read More
