The main clinical features are dystonia, dysarthria and rigidity, rapid progression, and early death. Until recently the diagnosis depended on clinical features and CT or MRI abnormalities in the globus pallidus. Pathologically, there is iron accumulation in the basal ganglia with destruction of the pallidum and substantia nigra. The classic disease is

Current Opinion in Pediatrics. 15(6):572-577, December 2003. Hayflick, Susan J. Abstract: Purpose of review: After the recent discovery of the major genetic defect in neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA, formerly Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome), this heterogeneous group of disorders can now be differentiated by clinical, radiographic, and molecular features. Summary: Recent insight into the biochemical basis of PKAN has led to novel ideas for rational therapies. Investigations are under way to enable testing of promising compounds, first in animal models of disease and then in human patients. Identification of the genetic basis for the major form of NBIA has allowed more accurate clinical delineation of the specific diseases that compose this group, a new molecular diagnostic test for PKAN, and hypotheses for treatment of this neurodegenerative disorder.

Final Diagnosis Neurodegeneration with Axonal Spheroids and Iron Deposition FINAL DIAGNOSIS: NEURODEGENERATION WITH AXONAL SPHEROIDS AND IRON DEPOSITION (NEURODEGENERATION WITH BRAIN IRON ACCUMULATION 1; HALLERVORDEN-SPATZ DISEASE). DISCUSSION Hallervorden-Spatz disease (HSD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease first described in two sisters in 1922 (1). The onset of symptoms is during the first two decades of life and mean survival is approximately 11 years; The clinical features may include progressive motor disorder characterized mainly by "extrapyramidal" signs, typically dystonia, choreoathetosis, tremor, dysarthria, muscular rigidity, and mental deterioration evolving to dementia. Other clinical features may include seizures, corticospinal tract involvement with spasticity and retinitis pigmentosa (2). Approximately one half of HSD cases are familial with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Recently a locus harboring the putative HSD gene was identified, by homozygocity mapping, on chromosome 20p12.3-p13. (3). Adult-onset HSD cases have been described and in rare cases acanthocytosis is also present. HSD-like cases with acanthocytosis, retinitis pigmentosa and pallidal degeneration with or without hypoprebetalipoproteinemia, have also been described (4, 5). Clinical criteria have been proposed to aid in the diagnosis of HSD but it is often difficult to arrive at the correct diagnosis without postmortem brain examination (6, 7). There is, currently, no treatment for HSD and management is directed at controlling specific symptoms.

DIAGNOSING ALS ALS/MND Like Diseases In many countries, ALS is regarded as just one form of several related Motor Neurone Diseases. In these countries the broader (and perhaps more accurate) term "Motor Neurone Disease" is used instead of ALS. There are some symptoms that occur in "textbook" cases of ALS that can differentiate it from other Motor Neurone disorders. The diagnosis of typical or so called "sporadic" ALS requires the presence of upper motor neuron signs (spasticity, rigidity, abnormal reflexes), lower motor neuron signs (weakness, atrophy) and progression. The pattern of upper and lower motor neuron signs that a neurologist detects are usually found in certain patterns commonly spread throughout several regions of the body. EMG and nerve conduction studies are helpful in identifying lower motor neuron problems in areas where there may not be much weakness. There are a large number of other illnesses that share some or many features of ALS and they must be evaluated or ruled out before a definite diagnosis can be made. An experienced practitioner who is familiar with the many presentations of ALS can make an accurate diagnosis with appropriate diagnostic testing and time to ensure that "look-alike" diseases have been excluded OTHER MOTOR NEURON DISEASES Primary Lateral Sclerosis This motor neuron disease is similar to ALS but only the upper motor neurons are degenerating. Although rare, some lower motor neurons may appear to be involved with mild atrophy. PLS patients have most problems with spasticity and stiffness. The disease can progress slowly over many years. Patients often respond well to medical therapy to reduce their spasticity and stiffness.

Hallervorden-Spatz disease is a rare, inherited, neurological movement disorder characterized by progressive degeneration of the nervous system. Symptoms, which vary greatly among patients and usually develop during childhood, may include slow writhing, distorting muscle contractions of the limbs, face, or trunk, choreoathetosis (involuntary, purposeless jerky muscle movements), muscle rigidity (uncontrolled tightness of the muscles), spasticity (sudden, involuntary muscle spasms), ataxia (inability to coordinate movements), confusion, disorientation, seizures, stupor, and dementia. Other less common symptoms may include painful muscle spasms, dysphasia (difficulty speaking), mental retardation, facial grimacing, dysarthria (poorly articulated speech), and visual impairment.

BC Medical Journal Volume 43, Number 3, April 2001, 129-132 Parkinson’s disease: A syndrome not a disease Accumulating evidence indicates that what we call Parkinson’s disease is not a disease for which we can expect to find a specific cause. Donald B. Calne, DM Dr Calne is the director of the Neurodegenerative Disorders Centre at Vancouver Hospital and Health Sciences Centre, University of British Columbia. Abstract Contents Definition Pathology Familial idiopathic parkinsonism Sporadic idiopathic parkinsonism ... References Definition As we learn more about Parkinson’s disease and the other two common neurodegenerative disorders, Alzheimer’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the same pattern of information emerges. It seems that these are not three distinct diseases, but rather they are three syndromes. By syndrome we may infer a collection of symptoms and signs that "run together," for which there may be many different causes. Thus the entities Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are comparable to such terms as meningitis, stroke, and peripheral neuropathy. As we uncover specific etiologies, we begin to catch a glimpse of variation in the clinical picture that tends to be associated with a particular etiology, and also a particular pathology. For example, patients with a family history of Parkinson’s disease tend to develop symptoms at a younger age than those who do not have a family history.
