OBJECTIVES: To describe the clinical phenotype of eight children diagnosed with CD59 deficiency and their ultimate neurological outcome.
METHODS: The data of our cases were extensively reviewed both clinical and ancillary tests; investigations included: neuroimaging, neurophysiological studies, and laboratory tests.
RESULTS: All patients presented during early infancy with Guillain-Barre syndrome later they suffered repeated relapses leading to the diagnosis of chronic axonal neuropathy. Recurrent stroke and acute necrotizing encephalopathy were described, 2 patients in each group. One girl developed acute disseminated encephalomyelitis while one boy developed acute transverse myelitis. Overt hemolytic anemia requiring blood transfusion reported in six patients.
CONCLUSION: Inherited CD59 deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder which can have devastating neurological consequences. First line immunotherapy including intravenous immunoglobin, corticosteroids, and plasma exchange may have transient beneficial effect. Reports of targeted therapy with eculizumab might be lifesaving. Genetic counseling is crucial.
