Canavan’s Disease

1989
Canavan’s disease (CD) is a rare hereditary neurological disorder affecting children. The disease is also called spongy degeneration of the CNS of the van Bogaert-Bertrand type. Similar to Tay-Sachs disease and Niemann-Pick disease, CD is most frequently found in children of Jewish Ashkenazi origin. An autosomal recessive mode of inheritance is evident:

Prenatal diagnosis of canavan disease

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1992
Spongy degeneration of the brain, Canavan disease (CD; McKusick 271900), is an autosomal recessive disorder prevalent among Ashkenazi Jews. The disease is a leukodystrophy manifested by macrocephaly, mental retardation and early death (Canavan 1931; van Bogaert and Bertrand 1967).

Case 99: Canavan Disease

Radiology, 2006
A 21-month-old boy, born without complications after an uncomplicated pregnancy, failed to achieve expected developmental milestones. As an infant, he developed nystagmus and poor muscular head control. Physical examination findings were notable for generalized hypotonia and macrocephaly. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and single-voxel MR spectroscopy

Restricted diffusion in Canavan disease

Child's Nervous System, 2007
Canavan disease is a megalencephalic leukodystrophy due to deficiency of the enzyme aspartoacylase. Proton MR spectroscopy finding of elevated N-acetyl-L: -aspartate is considered diagnostic of Canavan disease.We report a case of Canavan disease, which showed restricted diffusion in diffusion-weighted imaging and discuss the cause of it.

Molecular basis of Canavan disease

European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 1998
Canavan disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by spongy degeneration of the white matter of the brain. The brain pathology of the disease was described by Canavan in 1931 in a child thought to have Schilder’s disease.’ In 1949, van Bogaert and Bertrand in their report of three children of Jewish extraction with Canavan disease ...
