Abstract:
A 9-month-old boy presented with rapid deterioration of psychomotor development. He developed seizures at 2 months, and shortly thereafter lost motor skills and developed feeding difficulties, increased startle response, red maculas, and decreased vision. His measurements, including head circumference, were greater than the 95th centile. No organomegaly was found. Serum determination of the hemoxsaminidases confirmed the diagnosis of Sandhoff disease.
