Additional Information:

Clinical Description OMIM Berkovic et al. (2005) reported a consanguineous Israeli Arab family in which 8 members had an early-onset form of progressive myoclonic epilepsy. Age at seizure onset was 7.3 years (range, 5 to 10 years). Five patients presented with ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In affected members of the families reported by Berkovic et al. (2005), Straussberg et al. (2005), and El-Shanti et al. (2006), Bassuk et al. (2008) identified the same homozygous mutation in the PRICKLE1 gene (R104Q; 608500.0001). The findings ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME) with ataxia is suspected in a child or adolescent who displays the following:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews In PRICKLE1-related progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME) with ataxia, ataxia begins in general between ages four and five years, with PME emerging later. Individuals reported onset of symptoms of myoclonus and seizures between ages five and ten years. Difficulty walking prior to onset of myoclonus and seizures was reported but not documented. Some individuals in the preliminary study of this disorder exhibited early-onset ataxia, followed later by myoclonus and seizures, whereas in others ataxia was followed by florid progressive myoclonic epilepsy. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews Until more individuals with PRICKLE1-related PME with ataxia are evaluated, genotype-phenotype correlations cannot be determined....
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews When first evaluated, many individuals with progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME) with ataxia have progressive myoclonic epilepsy that most closely resembles Unverricht-Lundborg disease. Similar diagnoses such as Lafora disease, neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinoses, sialidosis, and myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERRF) should be considered....
Management GeneReviews To establish the level of severity of PRICKLE1-related progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME) with ataxia, the following evaluations should be performed:...
