Abstract
Aims: Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is genetically heterogeneous and clinically characterized by gait impairment because of weakness and spasticity of the lower limbs. In Caucasian populations, heterozygous Spastin mutations account for the majority of patients (SPG4) with predominant clinical manifestation within the third or fourth decade of life. A clinical manifestation during childhood is well known, but more common in less frequent forms such as SPG3a or complicated HSP, for example, SPG11.
