We report the history of two brothers who had early onset Parkinson (EOP) with blepharospasm, with family a history of Parkinson's disease. In both the neuropsychological examination showed cognitive deterioration with frontal lobe dysfunction. Patients with PLA2G6 mutation could show heterogeneous phenotype such as dystonia-parkinsonism (dystonia at onset affecting 14-57% of EOP patients and off period dystonia as affecting 30-59%), dementia and frontotemporal atrophy. Conclusion: In some genetic types of PD is produced from the beginning a degeneration of multiple systems with deficit in multiple neurotransmitters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
