Description

In 2 sibs, born of consanguineous Moroccan parents, with primary microcephaly-5 (MCPH5; 608716) and simplified gyration pattern on brain MRI, Desir et al. (2008) identified a homozygous 1-bp insertion (4195insA) in exon 18 of the ASPM gene, resulting in a frameshift and premature termination. The unaffected parents were heterozygous for the mutation. MRI in both patients showed that the simplified gyration was more severe in the anterior cortex. The data indicated that at least 1 form of primary microcephaly is allelic to a form of microcephaly with simplified gyral pattern (603802). However, Desir et al. (2008) noted that prenatal and postnatal brain imaging of patients with microcephaly has rarely been reported, suggesting that the 2 disorders may actually represent a phenotypic continuum. The findings also indicated that neuronal depletion of the ASPM gene predominantly affects the anterior cortex.
