Adult polyglucosan body disease: ultrarare but commonly misdiagnosed

Practical Neurology
Adult polyglucosan body disease is a rare genetic condition caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in GBE-1 gene. Affected patients typically have urinary dysfunction, progressive gait disturbance and cognitive impairment. We report a 63-year-old woman with urinary incontinence, walking difficulty and episodes of forgetfulness.

Frequent misdiagnosis of adult polyglucosan body disease

Journal of Neurology, 2015
Adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) is a rare glycogenosis manifesting progressive spastic paraparesis, sensorimotor polyneuropathy and neurogenic bladder. Misdiagnosis of APBD may lead to unnecessary investigations and to potentially harmful therapeutic interventions. To examine the frequency of misdiagnosis of APBD, we retrospectively reviewed the

A novel GBE1 mutation and features of polyglucosan bodies autophagy in Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease

Neuromuscular Disorders, 2015
We report the clinical, neuro-imaging, pathological and biochemical features of an Italian family in which two siblings have the Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease (APBD). APBD is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a gradually progressive involvement of both the central and peripheral nervous systems caused by the deficiency of the ...

Polyglucosan bodies in intramuscular nerve branches are a poor predictor of GBE1 mutation and adult polyglucosan body disease

Muscle & Nerve, 2016
ABSTRACTIntroduction: Adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) is associated with formation of polyglucosan bodies in peripheral nerve branches. Some muscle biopsies show these inclusions in intramuscular nerve branches. It has not been established whether the presence of multiple polyglucosan bodies in intramuscular peripheral nerve branches could or ...

Adult polyglucosan body disease: an acute presentation leading to unmasking of this rare disorder

Hospital Practice, 2021
Introduction Adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) is an autosomal recessive leukodystrophy caused by abnormal intracellular accumulation of glycogen byproducts. This disorder is linked to a deficiency in glycogen branching enzyme-1 (GBE-1).

Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease (APBD)

Journal of Neuropathology and Experimental Neurology, 1988
Three patients aged 63, 63 and 74 years had various combinations of progressive lower and upper motor neuron dysfunction, sensory loss, urinary incontinence and dementia. Postmortem examinations in two cases showed moderate cerebral and spinal atrophy, ill-defined areas of incomplete myelin loss in white matter and small necrotic foci in the white ...

Adult polyglucosan body disease

Neurology, 2003
Autopsy of a 50-year-old woman with adult polyglucosan body disease and missense mutations (Arg515His, Arg524Gln) in the glycogen branching enzyme gene (GBE) revealed accumulation of polyglucosan bodies in the heart, brain, and nerve. GBE activity was decreased in the morphologically affected tissues but was normal in unaffected tissues.

A type of adult polyglucosan body disease

Acta Neuropathologica, 1982
Polyglucosan bodies in the nervous system and other viscera are the main findings at autopsy of a 64-year-old woman who had a chronic neurologic disorder of 20 years' duration. The clinical features included muscle weakness, sensory disturbances, neurogenic bladder, dementia, and cataracts.
