Familial cerebellar degeneration with slow eye-movements, mental deterioration and incidental nevus of ota (oculo-dermal melanocytosis) / Michael P. WHYTE in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-3 (June 1976)
[article]
Titre : Familial cerebellar degeneration with slow eye-movements, mental deterioration and incidental nevus of ota (oculo-dermal melanocytosis) Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Michael P. WHYTE, Auteur ; Anatole S. DEKABAN, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.373-380 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Four members of a family with an autosomal dominant form of cerebellar degeneration all had slow eye-movements, i.e. slow pursuit with absence of both nystagmus and rapid saccadic movements. Three showed progressive mental deterioration. One patient had nevus of Ota (oculodermal melanocytosis) and a history of grand mal epilepsy. In these four patients the symptoms first occurred between the ages of 10 and 31 years--the onset apparently appearing earlier with successive generations. Current studies implicate a brain-stem lesion of the paramedian pontine reticular formation in the pathogenesis of the oculomotor abnormality. The possibility of a neurocutaneous syndrome, specifically a 'melanophakomatosis', in the patient with seizures and nevus of Ota is discussed; however, absence of these findings in other affected relatives makes a fortuitous association more probable. The literature on nevus of Ota associated with neurological disease is considered. Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=463
