Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Mimicking Cerebral Palsy-Heterozygous Mutation in ALDH18A1

Spastic paraplegias are characterised by progressive rigidity and weakness of the lower limbs. Spastic paraplegia is a standard differential diagnosis for spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias (HSP) are genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative d...
