Mashup Score: 10PRRT2-Associated Disorders | Neurology® Journals - 10 day(s) ago
Proline-rich transmembrane protein 2 (PRRT2) mutations have a dynamic phenotypic spectrum of paroxysms. In infancy, PRRT2 may manifest as self-limited infantile epilepsy, which is characterized by brief, frequent focal motor seizures that abate within one year from onset. 1 In childhood, frequent attacks of dystonia with chorea and/or ballism triggered by sudden moveme nt characterize PRRT2 -related paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia. 2 Less often, PRRT2 can be linked to hemiplegic migraine, episodic
