Specific types of leukodystrophy include the following with their respective ICD-10 codes when available: [citation needed] (E75.2) Alexander disease (E75.2) Canavan disease (E75.2) Hypomyelinating leukodystrophy type 7 (4H syndrome) (E75.2) Krabbe disease (E75.2) Metachromatic leukodystrophy (E75.2) Pelizaeus–Merzbacher disease
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a rare and often fatal viral disease characterized by progressive damage (-pathy) or inflammation of the white matter (leuko-) of the brain (-encephalo-) at multiple locations (multifocal). It is caused by the JC virus, which is normally present and kept under control by the immune system. The ...
Related disorders in the same disease spectrum as HDLS include Nasu-Hakola disease (polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy), and a type of leukodystrophy with pigment-filled macrophages called pigmentary orthochromatic leukodystrophy (POLD). [3] In addition to white matter disease, Nasu-Hakola causes bone ...
Leukoencephalopathy with neuroaxonal spheroids (LENAS), also known as adult-onset leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (ALSP), hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids (HDLS) and pigmentary orthochromatic leukodystrophy (POLD) [1] is an extremely rare kind of leukoencephalopathy and is classified as a neurodegenerative disease.
Krabbe disease (KD) (also known as globoid cell leukodystrophy [3] or galactosylceramide lipidosis) is a rare and often fatal lysosomal storage disease that results in progressive damage to the nervous system. KD involves dysfunctional metabolism of sphingolipids and is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.
Leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (VWM disease) is an autosomal recessive neurological disease. The cause of the disease are mutations in any of the 5 genes encoding subunits of the translation initiation factor eIF2B: EIF2B1, EIF2B2, EIF2B3, EIF2B4, or EIF2B5. The disease belongs to a family of conditions called the Leukodystrophies.
Metachromatic leukodystrophy has an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. MLD has an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. The inheritance probabilities per birth are as follows: [8] If both parents are carriers: 25% (1 in 4) of children will have the disease; 50% (2 in 4) of children will be carriers, but unaffected
The presence of frontal and temporal subcortical cysts is the main factor when diagnosing a patient with this disease. [11] In the late stages of the disease, patients have been noted to develop impaired coordination, overresponsive reflexes, and even seizures. MRI testing is used to study and diagnose patients with this disease.
