Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) X-linked infantile spinal muscular atrophy (XL-SMA) is characterized by neonatal onset of severe hypotonia, areflexia, and multiple congenital contractures, known as arthrogryposis, associated with loss of anterior horn cells and infantile death (summary by Ramser et al., 2008). ...
Clinical Description OMIM Greenberg et al. (1988) described under the label 'X-linked infantile spinal muscular atrophy' a disorder which appeared to be X-linked and was associated with contractures as in X-linked arthrogryposis. Kobayashi et al. (1995) studied the family originally reported ...
Molecular genetics OMIM To identify the XLSMA disease gene, Ramser et al. (2008) performed large-scale mutation analysis in genes located between markers DXS8080 and DXS7132 on Xp11.3-q11.1. This resulted in detection of 3 rare novel variants in exon 15 of the ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of X-linked infantile spinal muscular atrophy (XL-SMA) should be considered in children who meet the following criteria:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews X-linked infantile spinal muscular atrophy (XL-SMA) is characterized by severe hypotonia and areflexia with loss of anterior horn cells in the spinal cord (i.e., lower motor neurons). The disease course is similar to that in the most severe forms of classic autosomal recessive SMA caused by mutations in SMN1: SMA type 0 (SMA0) and SMA type I (SMA1) (see Spinal Muscular Atrophy). In SMA0, prenatal onset of weakness and poor intrauterine movement results in congenital contractures. In SMA1, motor skills regress before age six months; affected children are never able to sit independently. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews No genotype-phenotype correlations are evident. ...
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews The differential diagnosis of X-linked infantile spinal muscular atrophy (XL-SMA) caused by mutations in UBA1 includes classic autosomal recessive SMA caused by mutations in SMN1 and the genetically heterogeneous category of arthrogryposis (Table 2)....
Management GeneReviews To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with X-linked infantile spinal muscular atrophy (XL-SMA), the following evaluations are recommended:...
