Generalized Dystonia Due to a Pathogenic Variant Showing Sustained Response to Globus Pallidus Deep Brain Stimulation.
Abstract
A 21-year-old woman of south Asian origin presented with cervical dystonia which had progressed over the previous three years. Her symptoms started as writer's cramp since the age of seven years. She did not respond to medications and needed botulinum toxin injection for generalised dystonia. Subsequent whole genome sequencing revealed a likely pathogenic c.98G>A p.(Cys33Tyr) heterozygous variant in the gene. She underwent bilateral posteroventral globus pallidus interna (GPi) deep brain stimulation (Medtronic Activa PC) implantation at the age of thirty-one years. She responded well to the deep brain stimulation even after more than 8 years post-surgery though she needs botulinum toxin injection for her cervical dystonia.
