Localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy of cerebral abnormalities in children with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome.
Acta Paediatrica 1995 July
Morphologic and metabolic abnormalities in six children aged 2-9 years with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein (CDG) syndrome were assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). In all patients, MRI revealed pronounced cerebellar atrophy. Follow-up examinations in two patients suggested early onset and rapid progression in the first years of life. Further pathologies comprised Dandy-Walker malformation, atrophy of the pons, brain stem and olives, supratentorial frontotemporal cortical atrophy, slightly dilated ventricles and a small corpus callosum. Two patients presented with small cysts in the white matter. The prominent metabolic abnormality detected by proton MRS in five patients was a reduction in N-acetylaspartate in white matter by more than 20%, indicating loss of vital neuroaxonal tissue. Further findings in white matter were glutamine and gamma-aminobutyrate increases by a factor of 2. One patient with type III CDG syndrome showed the most severe alterations of metabolite concentrations.
