Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders featuring lower extremity spasticity and weakness. The "ears the lynx" is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sign that refers to degeneration forceps minor. Despite mimicking acquired conditions, like ependymitis granularis, it considered hallmark some HSPs, such as types 15 11.[1] However, there were other reported have this sign,[2] [3] particularly when accompanied by atrophy anterior portion corpus callosum.
The Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen) Gene Curation Expert Panels (GCEPs) have historically focused on specific organ systems or phenotypes; thus, the ClinGen Syndromic Disorders GCEP (SD-GCEP) was formed to address an unmet need.
