Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA), formerly known as Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome, is a heterogeneous group of disorders with different treatment options.
CASE REPORTS: In the first case, progressively generalizing dystonic symptoms appeared during childhood. A mutation in the gene encoding pantothenate kinase 2 (PANK2) was found. Brain MRI showed bilateral hypersignals within the globus pallidi on T2-weighted images. The patient was successfully treated by pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS). In the second case an adult onset with parkinsonism was observed, for which no PANK2 mutation was found. T2-weighted brain MR images revealed multiple significant hyposignals (suggestive of iron deposits) localised in the cerebellar dentate nuclei and in the globi pallidi, the red nuclei and the substantia nigra. An antiparkinsonian treatment was proposed.
CONCLUSION: The clinical, radiographic and genetic heterogeneity of NBIA has to be underlined.
