Extractions: National Organization for Rare Disorders Joubert Syndrome is a very rare neurological disorder involving a malformation of the area of the brain that controls balance and coordination. Generally motor activity is slowed (psychomotor retardation) and there are abnormal eye movements. Respiratory irregularities, including rapid panting, may occur during infancy.

A rare familial syndrome characterised by episodic panting in the newborn and jerky eye movements in the neonatal period with later the development of mental retardation, cerebellar ataxia and episodic hyperpnoea with hyperventilation. Pathological features are brainstem malformation and agenesis of the vermis of the cerebellum. Both sexes affected, onset in early infancy. Mast patients die in infancy or early childhood. The syndrome is believed to be transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. Etiology unknown.

Extractions: Syndrome Joubert syndrome Synonyms Joubert-Boltshauser syndrome cerebellar vermis agenesis cerebelloparenchymal disorder IV (CPD IV) Summary Partial or complete absence of the cerebellar vermis, episodic tachypnea, neonatal apnea, jerky eye movements, hypotonia, ataxia, impaired equilibrium, and mental handicap. Leber amaurosis (blindness with normal optic fundi and brain and kidney abnormalities) may be associated. Major Features Eyes: Abnormal movement and chorioretinal coloboma, blepharoptosis, and retinal dysplasia. Mouth and oral structures: Tongue tumors and protrusion. Hand and foot: Polydactyly. Muscles: Hypotonia. Nervous system: Hypoplasia or aplasia of the cerebellar vermis and occasional occipital meningoencephalocele in association with hemifacial spasms and ataxia. Tomographic findings include dilated cisterna magna and lack of the parenchyma in the midline between cisterna magna and fourth ventricle with enlarged communication between the two parts. Gastrointestinal system: Duodenal atresia in some cases. Fibrosis in some cases.

I am very interested in hearing more about how it was that your son got diagnosed. He has agenesis of the vermis, and agenesis of the left cerebellar hemisphere and hypoplasia http://neuro-www.mgh.harvard.edu/neurowebforum/GeneralFeedbackArticles/Agenesiso
Extractions: This response submitted by SHaron Gretz on 9/15/96. Author's Email: Sharong@nauticom.net I am very interested in hearing more about how it was that your son got diagnosed. I am also fairly confused by your use of the term Cerebral Palsy in reference to your son's cerebellar malformation. My son is five years old. He has agenesis of the vermis, and agenesis of the left cerebellar hemisphere and hypoplasia of the right hemisphere. Basically he has very little cerebelllum. Never has anyone ever put this neuroanatomy together with cerebral palsy. It is not a fit. Please contact me I would love to learn more. Also, have they ruled out Dandy Walker Malformation or Dandy Walker variant? Typically this is the diagnosis in cases of cerebellar vermal hypoplasia or agenesis. Sincerely, Sharon Gretz

Extractions: Search our online shop A B C D ... Z Seizures in which jerking spasms occur in one part of the body, sometimes spreading quickly to other areas, usually without loss of consciousness. The seizures occur in the part related to the irritated area of the brain and are due to a lesion in the cerebral cortex. (See also Epilepsy) Yellowness of the skin and tissues, best seen in the eyes by natural light. Due to an excess of bile pigment in the tissues. A condition in which the third and fifth cranial nerves are abnormally connected. One of the functions of the third nerve is the opening of the eyelid. As one of its functions, the fifth nerve controls the jaw muscles. In this disorder, the eyelid droops (ptosis) and opens when the jaw is moved. If the ptosis is severe or persistent, an operation to lift the eyelid may be necessary. A feature of some multiple abnormality syndromes. Features include: nystagmus, ataxia, alternating hyperpnoea (rapid breathing) and apnoea (cessation of breathing), lax muscle tone, learning difficulty. Due to failure of development of the vermis (a small structure within the cerebellum). Cause not established.
