KEGG   DISEASE: Diencephalic-mesencephalic junction dysplasia syndrome
Entry
H02487                      Disease                                
Name
Diencephalic-mesencephalic junction dysplasia syndrome
Description
Diencephalic-mesencephalic junction dysplasia syndrome (DMJDS) is a novel autosomal recessive brain malformation. DMJDS is associated with a characteristic butterfly-shaped contour of the midbrain on axial sections on MRI. Patients displayed severe cognitive impairment, post-natal progressive microcephaly, axial hypotonia, spastic quadriparesis and seizures. A few genes that cause DMJDS have been identified.
