Name cerebral vasculopathy with inflammation
Corresponding gene SAMHD1
Main clinical features
  • cerebral vasculopathy and early onset of stroke
  • poor tolerance to extreme environments, both cold and hot, acrocyanosis often on hands, feet, and face, worsening during cold weather (Raynaud’s phenomenon), and bchilblain lesions in acral locations during winter, migraine headache, seizure, hypothyroidism, and glaucoma, associated or not to intellectual disability
  • neuroimaging findings include chronic ischemic changes, multifocal stenoses of the large intracranial arteries, including some with moyamoya morphology and evidence of prior acute infarction and hemorrhage
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    Function/system disorder cardiovascular
    Type disease
    Remark(s) . c.1411-2A > G mutation, appeared at the consensus splice-acceptor site in intron 12, resulted in skipping of exon 13 of mRNA transcript, and gave rise to an aberrant protein with in-frame deletion of 31 amino acids (p.Glu471_Asp501del)
