To report a novel mutation and new clinical findings in a case with SPOAN syndrome (spastic paraplegia, optic atrophy, neuropathy).
Clinical examination, genetic testing and electroretinography were used to study a 2-year-old child who was referred to our clinic with no visual attention and documented SPOAN syndrome. Fundoscopy revealed optic atrophy, diffuse retinal pigment mottling, severe vascular attenuation, and completely non-vascularized peripheral retina in both eyes. Full-field electroretinogram (ERG) revealed flat responses.
Severe retinopathy and flat full-field ERG responses can occur in SPOAN syndrome.
报道一例 SPOAN 综合征(痉挛性截瘫、视神经萎缩、神经病)的新型突变和新的临床发现。
临床检查、基因检测和视网膜电图用于研究一名 2 岁儿童,该儿童因无视觉注意力而被转至我们的诊所,确诊为 SPOAN 综合征。眼底检查显示双眼视神经萎缩,弥漫性视网膜色素沉着,严重的血管衰减,以及完全无血管化的周边视网膜。全视野视网膜电图(ERG)显示平坦反应。
SPOAN 综合征可出现严重的视网膜病变和平坦的全视野 ERG 反应。
