Abstract

gene. This is a unique case of AMC, paradoxically occurring with hyperkinesia rather than with global hypokinesia, but the hyperkinetic movement repertoire is limited and restrictive. This case underlines the diagnostic value of integrating antenatal history and imaging with detailed postnatal phenotyping by a multidisciplinary team in neurometabolic disorders.
