Abstract

Background: Pathogenic variants in DYNC1H1, which encodes the cytoplasmic dynein 1 heavy chain 1, have been linked to a wide range of neurological syndromes.

Methods: We analyzed clinical data, video-electroencephalography, neuroimaging features, and genetic results in four patients with pathogenic variants in this gene.

Results: A comprehensive description of distinct neuroimaging and neurophysiological hallmarks that can aid in the recognition of these conditions is provided.

Conclusions: Two phenotypes have been identified: 1) three patients presented with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with focal seizures and epileptic spasms, along with a complex malformation of cortical development within the lissencephaly spectrum, and 2) the fourth patient exhibited developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with spike-and-wave activation in sleep along with bifrontal polymicrogyria. Notably, this is the first reported case of polymicrogyria and epileptic encephalopathy with spike-and-wave activation in sleep with evidence of an underlying genetic disorder.

期刊介绍： Pediatric Neurology publishes timely peer-reviewed clinical and research articles covering all aspects of the developing nervous system. Pediatric Neurology features up-to-the-minute publication of the latest advances in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of pediatric neurologic disorders. The journal''s editor, E. Steve Roach, in conjunction with the team of Associate Editors, heads an internationally recognized editorial board, ensuring the most authoritative and extensive coverage of the field. Among the topics covered are: epilepsy, mitochondrial diseases, congenital malformations, chromosomopathies, peripheral neuropathies, perinatal and childhood stroke, cerebral palsy, as well as other diseases affecting the developing nervous system.
