Abstract
Neuroacanthocytosis (NA) syndromes are characterized by various neurological abnormalities accompanied by abnormal red blood cells called acanthocytes. Neuroacanthocytosis syndromes may be divided into 4 main subgroups. These subgroups are named as; Core NA syndromes, Degenerative disorders where acanthocytosis is occasionally seen, Paroxysmal dyskinetic disorders and Disorders with reduced blood lipoproteins and acanthocytosis. This report focuses on a patient with Chorea-acanthocytosis who presented with motor signs in the 3rd decade of life. In the later course of disease, the patient developed attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and various tic disorders. We wanted to emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary care in the management of chorea-acanthocytosis.
