Adult onset supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, cerebellar ataxia, and neurogenic proximal muscle weakness in a brother and sister: another hexosaminidase A deficiency syndrome. Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry, 1987, Volume: 50, Issue:6 An Ashkenazi Jewish brother and sister developed progressive ataxia and proximal neurogenic muscle weakness, associated with supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, in the fourth decade of life. Hexosaminidase A activity, assayed using both synthetic and natural substrates, was severely reduced in the patients' plasma, leukocytes, and skin fibroblasts. Enzyme activity in their parents was in a similar range to that seen in heterozygotes for Tay-Sachs disease. The increasing evidence for marked clinical and molecular heterogeneity in the GM2 gangliosidoses warrants their consideration in the diagnosis of multisystem degenerative neurological disorders, even if onset of symptoms is in adult life. Topics: Age Factors; beta-N-Acetylhexosaminidases; Cerebellar Ataxia; Female; G(M2) Ganglioside; Hexosaminidase A; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Muscular Diseases; Ophthalmoplegia; Radiography; Syndrome	1987
Movement disorders associated with chronic GM2 gangliosidosis. Case report and review of the literature. European neurology, 1986, Volume: 25, Issue:2 A 24-year-old man presented with dystonia, dementia, amyotrophy, choreoathetosis, and ataxia. Partial hexosaminidase A deficiency was documented in serum and leukocytes and confirmed by rectal biopsy with ganglion cells containing membranous cytoplasmic bodies. A brief review of the literature reveals that tremor, dystonia and choreoathetosis are common but neglected symptoms associated with chronic GM2 gangliosidosis.
