Chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc) is an orphan disease, caused by mutations on chromosome 9. Epileptic seizures of mesial temporal origin can be a predominant symptom. We report on a 29-year-old woman with ChAc and bilateral MTS. Previously, few patients with coexisting ChAc and MTS were reported. The underlying pathophysiology is unknown, and further studies are needed.
舞蹈病-棘红细胞增多症(ChAc)是一种由9号染色体突变引起的罕见病。颞叶内侧起源的癫痫发作可能是其主要症状。我们报告了一名患有ChAc和双侧颞叶内侧硬化(MTS)的29岁女性。此前,鲜有ChAc和MTS共存患者的报道。其潜在病理生理学尚不清楚,需要进一步研究。
