Screening for RFC-1 pathological expansion in late-onset ataxias: a contribution to the differential diagnosis.
Journal of Neurology 2022 October
We screened 62 late-onset ataxia patients for the AAGGG pathological expansion in the RFC-1 gene that, when biallelic, causes Cerebellar Ataxia, Neuropathy, Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome (CANVAS). Nine patients tested positive. Six had a previous diagnosis of sporadic adult-onset ataxia (SAOA) and three of multisystem atrophy type C (MSA-C). Further six patients were heterozygous for the pathological RFC-1 expansion, four with an initial diagnosis of MSA-C and two of SAOA. In comparison with CANVAS, MSA-C patients had faster progression and shorter disease duration to walking with aids. An abnormal DaTscan does not seem to contribute to differential diagnosis between CANVAS and MSA-C.
