Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1988
Hereditary spastic paraplegia is a genetically transmitted disease that is usually autosomal dominant. Characterized by a slow progression of spastic paraparesis, it is frequently misdiagnosed as cerebral palsy. Our experience consists of six families with a total of 26 affected members.

Genetic and phenotypic characterization of complex hereditary spastic paraplegia [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2016
The hereditary spastic paraplegias are a heterogeneous group of degenerative disorders that are clinically classified as either pure with predominant lower limb spasticity, or complex where spastic paraplegia is complicated with additional neurological ...

Hereditary spastic paraplegias: an update

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2007
Hereditary spastic paraplegias are a genetically heterogeneous group of diseases. Recent advances concerning their nosology and molecular bases have greatly improved the genetic diagnosis of these diseases, with implications for genetic counselling. The recent identification of new genes and loci, however, has blurred the distinction between hereditary

The hereditary spastic paraplegias

Journal of Neurology, 1999
The hereditary spastic paraplegias are a complex group of neurodegenerative conditions which are characterised by slowly progressive lower limb spasticity. This article describes the main clinical features of pure and complicated hereditary spastic paraplegias and summarises recent advances in our understanding of the molecular genetics of these ...

Genetics of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias

Seminars in Neurology, 2011
Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are clinically and genetically highly heterogeneous. The key symptom of spastic paraparesis of lower limbs can be complicated by a variety of signs and symptoms including cognitive impairment, optic atrophy, cerebellar ataxia, peripheral nerve involvement, or seizures.

Advances in the hereditary spastic paraplegias

Experimental Neurology, 2003
This review summarizes advances in understanding the genetics of the hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs), a diverse group of inherited disorders in which the primary symptom is insidiously progressive difficulty walking due to lower extremity spastic weakness. Twenty HSP loci and nine HSP genes have been discovered.

The hereditary spastic paraplegias

2005
The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a group of more than 90 genetic disorders in which lower extremity spasticity and weakness are either the primary neurologic impairments ("uncomplicated HSP") or when accompanied by other neurologic deficits ("complicated HSP"), important features of the clinical syndrome.

Advances in hereditary spastic paraplegia

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1997
Hereditary spastic paraplegia refers to a group of clinically similar disorders whose primary feature is insidiously progressive lower extremity weakness and spasticity. Hereditary spastic paraplegia is genetically diverse: loci for autosomal recessive (chromosome 8p), autosomal dominant (chromosome 2p, 14q, and 15q), and x-linked hereditary spastic ...

Hereditary spastic paraplegia

2018
The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a heterogeneous group of neurologic disorders with the common feature of prominent lower-extremity spasticity, resulting from a length-dependent axonopathy of corticospinal upper motor neurons. The HSPs exist not only in "pure" forms but also in "complex" forms that are associated with additional neurologic

HEREDITARY (FAMILIAL) SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA

Archives of Neurology And Psychiatry, 1952
SINCE 1876, 1 a heredofamilial disease has been known in which the only disturbance, or the most prominent disturbance, has been a slowly progressive weakness and spasticity of the lower extremities. Contributions by Strumpell 2 and Lorrain 3 have led writers to designate this disease by their names.
