Ten different spastic gait ( SPG ) loci have been associated with autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (ADHSP), and thus far five genes have been identified. Mutations in SPG3A gene encoding atlastin account for ∼10% of ADHSP.1 We report an Italian family with pure ADHSP and incomplete penetrance caused by a new mutation in the atlastin gene (figure).
