INTRODUCTION: Heterozygous BICD2 gene mutations cause a form of autosomal dominant spinal muscular atrophy with lower extremity predominance (SMALED).
METHODS: We analyzed the BICD2 gene in a selected group of 25 index patients with neurogenic muscle atrophy.
RESULTS: We identified 2 new BICD2 missense mutations, c.2515G>A, p.Gly839Arg, in a family with autosomal dominant inheritance, and c.2202G>T, p.Lys734Asn, as a de novo mutation in an isolated patient with similar phenotype. The patients had congenital foot contractures, muscle atrophy of the legs, and slowly progressive weakness of the shoulder girdle. There was no apparent sensory or brain dysfunction. One patient died of unrelated reasons at age 52 years. Autopsy revealed no upper motor neuron and only moderate lower motor neuron loss, but there was distal corticospinal tract degeneration and marked neurogenic muscular atrophy.
CONCLUSION: These findings give further insight into the clinical and pathoanatomical consequences of BICD2 mutations. Muscle Nerve 54: 496-500, 2016.
