Gait Alterations Due to DCC Gene Variants in Individuals with Congenital Mirror Movements
Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Background Congenital Mirror Movement Syndrome (CMMS) involves involuntary movements on one side of the body while voluntary movements are performed on the other side. They disrupt left–right coordination and can be caused by a pathogenic variant in the DCC gene.
