A Novel de novo KIF1A Mutation in a Patient with Ataxia, Intellectual Disability and Mild Foot Deformity.

ABSTRACT: Early-onset ataxias are often difficult to diagnose due to the genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity of patients. Whole exome sequencing (WES) is a powerful method for determining causative mutations of early-onset ataxias. We report a case in which a novel de novo KIF1A mutation was identified in a patient with ataxia, intellectual disability and mild foot deformity.A patient presented with sporadic forms of ataxia with mild foot deformity, intellectual disability, peripheral neuropathy, pyramidal signs, and orthostatic hypotension. WES was used to identify a novel de novo mutation in KIF1A, a known causative gene of neurodegeneration and spasticity with or without cerebellar atrophy or cortical visual impairment syndrome (NESCAVS).We report a novel phenotype of NESCAVS that is associated with a novel de novo missense mutation in KIF1A, which provides valuable information for the diagnosis of NESCAVS even in the era of WES. Early rehabilitation of patients with NESCAVS may prevent symptom worsening and improve the disease course.
