Abstract
We report a Tunisian patient born from consanguineous marriage affected with progressive myoclonus epilepsy and cognitive decline, consistent with the diagnosis of Lafora disease. Genetic analysis showed a novel c.659 T>A mutation on exon 3 of the EPM2A gene, converting a leucine to a glutamine residue at amino acid position 220 (p.Leu220Gln), in the dual-specificity phosphatase domain.Entities:
