Four unrelated families reported with this neurodegenerative disorder. Onset of motor and cognitive impairment in the first or second decade of life. Features include dystonia, ataxia, spasticity, dysphagia, severe optic atrophy, and some have hearing loss. Brain imaging shows hypomyelinating leukodystrophy with thin corpus callosum.
