A Japanese patient with neonatal biotin-responsive basal ganglia disease
Biotin-responsive basal ganglia disease (BBGD) with SLC19A3 mutation was first reported in 1998, and over 30 mutations have been reported. We report a neonatal BBGD case with sudden-onset feeding difficulty and impaired consciousness. Encephalopathy resolved after the initiation of biotin and thiami...

Zusammenfassung: | Biotin-responsive basal ganglia disease (BBGD) with
SLC19A3
mutation was first reported in 1998, and over 30 mutations have been reported. We report a neonatal BBGD case with sudden-onset feeding difficulty and impaired consciousness. Encephalopathy resolved after the initiation of biotin and thiamine treatment. Genetic testing revealed a novel heterozygous mutation [c.384_387del, p.Tyr128fs];[c.265 A > C, p.Ser89Arg] in
SLC19A3
. Early treatment for BBGD is essential, especially with onset in the neonatal or early infancy period. |
