Cerebellar ataxia, mental retardation, and disequilibrium syndrome (CAMRQ) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous disorder with four described subtypes. Autosomal recessive syndrome of cerebellar ataxia, mental retardation, and disequilibrium type 4 (CAMRQ4) is caused by mutations in the gene. We report an 8-year-old boy with choreoathetosis, hypotonia, without the ability to keep his head up and profound mental retardation.

Article Synopsis
  • Alström syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the ALMS1 gene, leading to issues like vision and hearing loss, childhood obesity, and diabetes.
  • A 12-year-old boy showed early signs of hearing and vision impairments, obesity (BMI 31.64), and scoliosis, with normal mental development despite these health challenges.
  • Genetic testing revealed a specific harmful variant in the ALMS1 gene, confirming his diagnosis, while also distinguishing his condition from similar syndromes due to lack of mental retardation and polydactyly.
