Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration in two Chinese children: identification of a novel PANK2 gene mutation.

Hong Kong medical journal = Xianggang yi xue za zhi - 1 Feb 2008

Chan K Y, Lam C W, Lee L P, Tong S F, Yuen Y P

Abstract excerpt

Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (formerly Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome), the most prevalent form of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation, is a rare degenerative brain disease characterised by predominantly extrapyramidal dysfunction resulting from mutations in the PANK2...
