VIGNETTE Male, 15 years; Clinical presentation: Early onset spastic paraparesis -> spastic quadriparesis ; Hypo- and bradykinesia; Dysphagia, dysarthria, and hypomimia; Preserved cognitive functioning (Leiter-R IQ 86); Delayed motor evoked potentials; MRI: Cortico-bulbar tract signal abnormality ; Mastrangelo et al © 2013 American Academy of Neurology

LEGEND TO VIDEO: Clinical course of IAHSP in our patient LEGEND TO VIDEO: Clinical course of IAHSP in our patient. A) 2 years: spastic diplegia as presenting symptom; B-C) 5-6 years: ascending progression of spasticity with involvement of upper limbs; D) 12 years: worsening of weakness (after muscle lengthening and dorsal rhizotomy) as well as hypo- and bradykinesia; E) 15 years: wheelchaired bound, severe hypomimia.

Clinical course of infantile ascending hereditary spastic paralysis - Diagnosis: Infantile ascending hereditary spastic paralysis (IAHSP). - ALS2 gene sequencing: homozygous c.2992C>T (p.R998X) substitution in exon 18; - IAHSP may be misdiagnosed as a static encephalopathy because of its slow progression; - Children with slowly progressive quadriparesis should be tested for ALS2 gene mutations .
