Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis in The Netherlands-II.

This paper is a report on Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) in The Netherlands (synonyms: Batten disease, Jansky-Bielschowsky disease, Batten-Mayou disease, Stock-Spielmeyer-Vogt disease). Discussed are the late infantile type with predominant accumulation of lipofuscin in the form of curvilinear bodies (Jansky-Bielschowsky) and the juvenile type with accumulation of lipofuscin in the form of fingerprint- and rectilinear profiles (Batten-Mayou disease and Stock-Spielmeyer-Vogt disease or F-type of NCL).
