Abstract:
Primary brain calcifications are most often described in a family context (PFBC). It is a rare neurodegenerative disease characterized by calcifications of the basal ganglia and other brain regions. the diagnostic criteria for this disease are defined by: bilateral calcifications of the nuclei of the base; progressive neurological disorders; the absence of abnormalities suggestive of another metabolic or mitochondrial disorder, the absence of an infectio us, traumatic or toxic cause and an evocative family context. His pathophysiology is unclear. We report an observation of sporadic primary ce

We screened DNA samples from 53 patients with primary familial brain calcification (PFBC) and 26 patients with brain calcification of unknown cause (BCUC).Results:We identified brain calcifications in subcortical and perithalamic regions in the patient with a homozygous PCDH12 nonsense variant.

Abstract:
Background and ObjectivesIn clinical practice, it can be difficult to differentiate between intracranial calcifications related to primary familial brain calcification (PFBC) or aging. Also, little is known about the consequences of the amount of intracranial calcifications in patients with PFBC. Therefore, we aimed to compare the amount and distribution of intracranial calcifications in persons with PFBC with controls and between asymptomatic and symptomatic PFBC cases.MethodsThis was a case-control study including patients with PFBC and controls. Controls received a CT of the brain because o

Abstract:
Many conditions can present with accumulation of calcium in the brain and manifest with a variety of neurological symptoms. Brain calcifications can be primary (idiopathic or genetic) or secondary to various pathological conditions (e.g., calcium–phosphate metabolism derangement, autoimmune disorders and infections, among others). A set of causative genes associated with primary familial brain calcification (PFBC) has now been identified, and include genes such as SLC20A2, PDGFB, PDGFRB, XPR1, MYORG, and JAM2. However, many more genes are known to be linked with complex syndromes characterized

Fahr disease, also known as idiopathic basal ganglion calcification, is a rare and genetically heterogeneous neurological disorder. Herein, we report a rare case of Fahr disease presenting with multiple cerebral calcifications. A 63-year-old woman presented with dizziness to a local clinic. Brain computed tomography performed on admission revealed multiple high-intensity lesions in both basal ganglia, both cerebellar hemispheres, and the left frontal lobe. In contrast, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed no prominent lesions on T2- and T1-weighted images, and there was no contrast en

Background: Brain calcifications, found in various conditions, may be incidental or crucial for diagnosis. They occur in physiological changes, infections, genetic diseases, neurodegenerative conditions, vascular syndromes, metabolic disorders, endocrine disorders, and primary tumors like oligodendroglioma. While often incidental, their presence can be vital for accurate diagnosis. Brain metastases are the most common neoplastic lesions in adults, with their incidence increasing due to improved diagnostic tools and overall oncologic patient survival.

Abstract:
Abstract Primary familial brain calcification is a monogenic disease characterized by bilateral calcifications in the basal ganglia and other brain regions, and commonly presents motor, psychiatric, and cognitive symptoms. Currently, four autosomal dominant (SLC20A2, PDGFRB, PDGFB, XPR1) and one autosomal recessive (MYORG) causative genes have been identified. Compared with patients with autosomal dominant primary familial brain calcification, patients with the recessive form of the disease present with more severe clinical and imaging phenotypes, and deserve more clinical and research attenti

Abstract:
Brain calcification, the ectopic mineral deposits of calcium phosphate, is a frequent radiological finding and a diagnostic criterion for primary familial brain calcification. We previously showed that microglia curtail the growth of small vessel calcification via the triggering receptor expressed in myeloid 2 (TREM2) in thePdgfbret/retmouse model of primary familial brain calcification. Because boosting TREM2 function using activating antibodies has been shown to be beneficial in other disease conditions by aiding in microglial clearance of diverse pathologies, we investigated whether adminis

Atherosclerosis (hardening and narrowing) of the coronary arteries results in blockages that cause myocardial infarction (i.e. necrosis of heart muscle). The majority of strokes are also caused by obstructive atherosclerosis in the arteries leading to and within the brain. Atherosclerosis is considered by many to be a modern-day disease secondary to contemporary lifestyles. However, in recent years it has been confirmed as a much older disease with a longer evolut
