Abstract:
We describe a case of young onset generalized dystonia, harboring a previously unreported likely pathogenic THAP1 missense variant (c.109 G > A; p.Glu37Lys) that was inherited from her unaffected father. Moreover, we report a positive effect of deep brain stimulation, particularly on the cervical component of dystonia.
