hereditary spastic paraplegia This is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder which in its simple form results in a progressive spastic paraplegia. Patients present at any time from childhood to old age. There are two main forms of the disease: early onset with a very indolent course later onset, 40-60 yrs, with occasional complicating features such as cerebellar ataxia, dementia and epilepsy There is an important differential diagnosis.

NeuroCAST - SPG3A (atlastin) And SPG4 (spastin): Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneousgroup of inherited disorders characterized by insidiously progressive, often http://www.neurocast.com/site/content/sessions_08_2003.asp

Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited disorders characterized by insidiously progressive, often severe, lower extremity weakness and spasticity. Symptom severity, age of onset and rate of disease progression may vary widely among patients. It is estimated that three in every 100,000 people are affected with HSP in the U.S. HSPs are classified by clinical presentation, as either uncomplicated or complicated, and by inheritance pattern. Uncomplicated (or pure) HSP is the most common form and is characterized by progressive lower extremity spastic weakness, accompanied by hypertonic urinary bladder disturbances, and often, mildly impaired vibration sensation. Uncomplicated HSP can be disabling, but it does not shorten life span. HSP is classified as complicated if the impairments of the uncomplicated form are accompanied by additional neurologic abnormalities that are not attributable to other co-existing disorders. Researchers estimate that uncomplicated HSP represents 90% of all HSP cases, while complicated HSP accounts for 10%. HSP's inheritance pattern may be autosomal dominant (the most common), autosomal recessive or X-linked. Recent advances in molecular genetic testing now enable the identification of at least 50% of uncomplicated autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (ADHSP) cases.

I have heard that there may be a blood test available for the X-linked gene, but have not been able to verify that, or find out if tests are currently available for any of the other genes. Tough question. This is not an active area of research in our institution so I'm not sure how much help I can be. I've asked around and the word I hear is that the gene locus is being looked at in the various subtypes but I think that any testing is still experimental. I will give you some reference articles

The FSP Group Moving Forward Together Home Newsletters Membership Links ... Contact Us What is Familial Spastic Paraplegia? Familial Spastic Paraplegia (FSP) is also known as Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP), Familial Spastic Paraparesis or Strumpell-Lorrain Syndrome. The condition is rare and is caused by the inheritance of an abnormal gene from an affected parent. It has been diagnosed where no family history of the condition is known. FSP describes a group of disorders characterised by progressive stiffness (spasticity) of the legs associated with varying degrees of weakness. A number of symptoms are associated with this condition including stiffness and leg cramps which often precede the emergence of a scissoring spastic gait. What does the FSP Group do? A quarterly newsletter which updates members on current topics. A national meeting which includes an Annual General Meeting, lectures by FSP specialists and subsequent discussion groups. A help-line which offers advice to new members and those with problems. A library of information articles on FSP.
