Treatable Cause of Refractory Seizures in an Infant with a Novel Mutation.
Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences 2021 January
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy is a treatable cause of epilepsy, which is very well known. It is most commonly caused by mutations in ALDH7A1 and PNPO genes. A 5-month-old infant presented with refractory seizures. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain was normal. Clinical exome sequencing showed a novel mutation in PROSC gene. He responded very well to pyridoxine and has been seizure free since the beginning of the treatment. PROSC gene mutations have been recently described as a cause for pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy. Here, we describe a first case report of PROSC mutation from India with a rare genetic variant presenting as pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy.
