Known mutations in at least 13 different genes can result in NCL with variable ages of onset, symptoms, and pathologic findings. Generally, these patients experience cognitive and motor decline, seizures, visual impairment, and premature death. Pathologically, NCL patients display heterogeneous histologic abnormalities, but consistently exhibit neuronal loss, reactive gliosis, and lysosomal accumulation of autofluorescent storage material or lipopigment. Juvenile-onset NCL has been classically referred to as Batten disease. By far the most prevalent NCL is <i>CLN3</i>-associated disease. It is an autosomal recessive condition that is usually caused by mutations in the ceroid-lipofuscinosis, neuronal 3 (<i>CLN3</i>) gene. <i>CLN3</i> encodes battenin, a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane protein of unknown function that is associated with cellular homeostasis and neuronal survival. The initial clinical symptom of <i>CLN3</i>-associated NCL is central vision loss, which is usually detected between 4 and 9 years of age. Seizures typically begin early in the second decade of life, and affected individuals rarely live beyond their mid-20ies.</p><p><strong>Case presentation: </strong>Herein, we describe a 16-year-old patient with <i>CLN3-</i>related juvenile NCL with a preliminary diagnosis of Niemann Pick Type C disease.

Intellectual disability (ID) is defined as a deficit in an individual‧s learning and adaptive behavior at an early age of onset [American Psychiatric Association, 2013]. It is one of the major medical, and cognitive disorders with a prevalence of 1-3% in the population worldwide [Leonard and Wen, 2002]. ID often exists with other disabling mental conditions such as autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, epilepsy, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or depression. Almost half of the cases appear to have a genetic explanation that ranges from cytogenetically visible abnormalities to monogenic defects [Flint, 2001; Ropers, 2010; Tucker-Drob et al., 2013]. Intellectual disability is a genetically heterogeneous condition, and more than 700 genes have been identified to cause ID alone or as a part of the syndrome.
