Cherry red spot in sialidosis (mucolipidosis type I).
tial for posterior dislocation of the donor corneal disc in aphakic eyes must be taken into consideration. Longer-lasting, higher-buoyancy gases (such as SF6) could be used as alternatives to air, but the possible toxic effect to endothelial cells should be elucidated.

متن کاملAdult Onset Familial Cherry-Red Spot Myoclonus
We report a case of a 36-year-old woman with progressive generalized myoclonus that first became apparent 9 years ago. Her younger brother had similar problems. Examination of her eyes revealed cherry-red spots. Hexosaminidase A, β-galactosidase and neuraminidase activity were normal. Although the laboratory findings were negative, cherry-red spots, progressive myoclonus and autosomal recessive...
متن کاملCherry-red spot myoclonus syndrome and alpha-neuraminidase deficiency: neurophysiological, pharmacological and biochemical study in an adult.
A 22 year old patient with non-familial progressive myoclonus, macular cherry-red spot, moderate cerebellar syndrome and normal intelligence is described. The myoclonus began at the age of 18 years. Focal myoclonus could easily be elicited by voluntary and passive movements, and by touch and electrical stimulation of median nerve. Somatosensory evoked potentials showed a high voltage early comp...
متن کاملLong-term follow-up of metachronous marrow-kidney transplantation in severe type II sialidosis: what does success mean?
Sialidosis is a rare lysosomal storage disorder, characterizedbydeficient lysosomalneuraminidase (NEU1) activity and aberrant accumulation of sialylated glycoconjugates [1]. Affected sialidosis patients are divided into two groups [1,2]. Type I (normomorphic) sialidosis, an attenuated non-neuropathic form of the disease, is associated with cherry-red spot myoclonus syndrome, occurring in the se...
متن کاملTopiramate is effective for status epilepticus and seizure control in neuraminidase deficiency.
Sialidosis, a rare lysosomal storage disorder is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme α-N-acetyl neuraminidase, resulting from mutations in the NEU1 gene. Its main phenotypes are Sialidosis types I (milder form) and II (earlier onset). Sialidosis type II is characterized by developmental delay, macular cherry-red spot, visceromegaly, coarse facies, dysostosis multiplex, and myoclonus. We report...
