Clinical Description OMIM In an Amish group in Ohio, Cross and McKusick (1967) observed 20 cases of spastic paraplegia with distal muscle wasting, and designated it Troyer syndrome for the surname of many of the affected persons. The disorder has its ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Patel et al. (2002) identified a frameshift mutation (1110delA; 607111.0001) in the SPG20 gene in individuals with Troyer syndrome from the Amish kindred in which the disorder was first described.

Bakowska et al. (2008) identified the ...

Diagnosis GeneReviews The clinical features of Troyer syndrome include the following:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews Troyer syndrome is characterized by both developmental and degenerative processes: findings apparent from infancy progress slowly. The cardinal features of Troyer syndrome include spastic paraparesis, dysarthria, distal amyotrophy, and short stature [Proukakis et al 2004]. ...
