Idiopathic Basal Ganglia Calcifications: An Atypical Presentation of PKAN
Pediatric Neurology, 2013We report a patient with pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration presenting as idiopathic basal ganglia calcifications, previously known as Fahr's disease.A teenage girl presented with slowly progressive dystonia. Her brain magnetic resonance imaging scan revealed T1 and T2 hypointensities in both globus pallidi, and no eye-of-the-tiger sign ...

The acylcarnitine profile in patients with PKAN may mimic CPT1 deficiency
Molecular Genetics and MetabolismCoenzyme A (CoA), synthesized from pantothenate, is an essential cofactor required for numerous pivotal enzymatic reactions. Abnormal acylcarnitine profiles similar to those observed in carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) deficiency have been reported in patients with coenzyme A synthetase (COASY)-related diseases and phosphopantothenoylcysteine ...

Missense variants in PKAN: insights from a multi-patient genetic analysis
NeurogeneticsPantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) is a common subtype of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA), caused by biallelic variants in the PANK2 gene. In this study, we investigated five unrelated patients clinically suspected of PKAN (four atypical, one classical) using next-generation sequencing followed by Sanger ...

A case of PKAN treated with botulinum toxin A
Toxicon, 2008A 26-year-old girl had typical clinical presentation of pantothenate kinase associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) and autosomal recessive transmission was evaluated. She had marked contractions of the lower facial muscles and severe contraction of calf muscles, with both feet in a crooked position, more evident on the left side. Since infancy, she walked
