Informations about the disease
Aicardi-Goutières syndrome is a disorder that primarily affects the brain, immune system and skin. Most newborns with the syndrome are asymptomatic; about 20% are born with hepatosplenomegaly, elevated liver enzymes, thrombocytopenia and neurologic abnormalities. This constellation is sometimes considered to reflect congenital infection. Within the first year of life, most children with Aicardi-Goutières syndrome experience an episode of severe encephalopathy lasting several months. The growth of the brain and skull slows, leading to microcephaly with inflammation and tissue damage in the central nervous system. This phase leads to permanent and severe neurological damage with mental retardation via leukodystrophy and calcification. Spasticity, dystonia and hypotonia develop in the trunk. Some patients have features of autoimmune disease resembling systemic lupus erythematosus, ~40% have chilblains. Visual disturbances, joint stiffness and oral ulcers may occur. Because of the severe neurologic problems that usually accompany, most patients do not survive childhood. Mutations in multiple genes can cause Aicardi-Goutières syndrome, and it can also have different inheritance patterns, in most cases an autosomal recessive and rarely a dominant pattern. The molecular genetic diagnostic yield reaches 99%, virtually always confirming the carefully established clinical diagnosis.
