Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegenerative diseases is a type of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation characterized by excessive iron deposition in specific parts of the brain. The phenotypic spectrum includes classic and atypical PKAN. The clinical presentation may range from speech disorder to severe dystonia, dysphagia, mental retardation and retinal degeneration. It is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a variant in the PANK2 gene, pathogenesis involves mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress damage, lipid metabolism disorders and autophagy disorders.
