| infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy |
progressive hereditary degenerative encephalopathy transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait, beginning in infancy with muscular hypotonia and arrest of development in late infancy, followed by dementia, blindness, spasticity, and ataxia. Pathologically it is characterized by widespread focal swellings and degeneration of the axons with scattered spheroids in the brain. In some, but not all, cases it is caused by a deficiency of a-N-acetylgalactosaminidase. Called also Seitelberger's disease.
