Abstract excerpt
We describe a novel homozygous intragenic deletion in the ALS2 gene in an 8-year-old boy with Infantile-onset Ascending Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (IAHSP) and oculomotor apraxia, thereby contributing to the expanding genetic landscape of ALS2-related disorders. Comprehensive neurological evaluation, chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and trio-based whole exome sequencing (WES) were performed. CMA revealed...
