摘要
Objectives Characterize the presentation, workup, and management of SGCE myoclonus-dystonia, a rare genetic condition, in a patient with atypical presenting symptoms and no family history of movement abnormalities. Methods A woman with myoclonus and dystonia was identified based on clinical history and physical examination. Workup was conducted to determine the cause of her symptoms, including whole-exome sequencing. Myoclonus-dystonia is associated with more than 100 distinct mutations in MYC/DYT-SGCE that account for only half of the total myoclonus-dystonia patients. As such, this case required intensive genetic analyses rather than screening only for a small subset of well-characterized mutations. Results Childhood onset myoclonus and worsening dystonia with age were identified in a young woman. She underwent screening for common causes of twitching movements, followed by whole-exome sequencing which identified a de novo novel variant in the SGCE gene, resulting in a diagnosis of SGCE myoclonus-dystonia. Discussion Myoclonus-dystonia should be considered in patients with symptoms of head and upper extremity myoclonus early in life, especially with co-occurring dystonia, even in the absence of a family history of similar symptoms. Diagnosis of this condition should take place using sequencing, as new mutations continue to be discovered.
