Spinocerebellar ataxia type 10 (SCA10) is an autosomal dominant (AD) neurodegenerative disorder prevalent in the Americas, particularly in Mexico. Clinical manifestations include progressive ataxia and epilepsy. However, it can exhibit wide phenotypic variability and even reduced penetrance.

Background: Aarskog-Scott syndrome (AAS) is a rare condition with multiple congenital anomalies, caused by hemizygote variants in the gene. Its description was based mostly on old case reports, in whom a molecular diagnosis was not always available, or on small series. The aim of this study was to better delineate the phenotype and the natural history of AAS and to provide clues for the diagnosis and the management of the patients.

Objective: To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of two children diagnosed with two rare genetic diseases simultaneously.
Methods: Two children with comorbidity of two genetic diseases due to dual genetic mutations diagnosed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University respectively in May 2022 and March 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical and genetic data of the two children were retrospectively analyzed.
Introduction: Hereditary bleeding disorders stem from the absence or insufficient levels of particular clotting proteins, essential for facilitating coagulation in the clotting cascade. Among the most prevalent are hemophilia A (deficiency of Factor VIII), hemophilia B (deficiency of Factor IX), and von Willebrand disease. Management of pharmacoresistant epilepsy is more difficult in a patient with bleeding disorder due to increased risk of bleeding during surgery.

The alpha 1 and 2 chains of type IV collagen, encoded by the COL4A1 (MIM 120130) and COL4A2 (MIM 120090) respectively, play essential roles in the vascular basement membranes. Pathogenic variants in COL4A1/ COL4A2 are associated with autosomal dominant cerebral angiopathies. The clinical manifestations of COL4A1/COL4A2-related disorders include: aneurysms, intracerebral hemorrhage, polymicrogyria, porencephaly, heterotopia, periventricular leukomalacia, epilepsy, and neurodevelopmental disorders.
