## Abstract ## Background: Mutations in the maternally imprinted epsilon‐sarcoglycan gene occur in 30%–50% of myoclonus‐dystonia cases. Psychiatric symptoms, particularly obsessive‐compulsive disorder, have been described in some patients. ## Methods: We systematically reviewed 22 reports of psy

## Abstract Primary dystonias represent a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of movement disorders. Mutations in the ϵ‐sarcoglycan (SGCE) gene have been found recently to cause myoclonus–dystonia (MD). Considerable clinical variation of SGCE mutation carriers leads to the hypothesis tha

## Abstract We describe two affected individuals in a family with myoclonus–dystonia syndrome complicated with severe depression. One individual committed suicide. Molecular genetic analysis revealed a heterozygous point mutation in the ε‐sarcoglycan gene, which we show leads to skipping of exon 5.

## Abstract Neuroferritinopathy is a recently recognized autosomal dominant disorder that results in abnormal aggregates of iron and ferritin in the brain due to a mutation in the ferritin light chain gene on chromosome 19q13.3. We present the clinical details of a patient with adult‐onset generali
