Premutation alleles with 55 to 200 repeats in the FMR1 gene lead to FXTAS. It is carried by 1 in 209 women and 1 in 430 men. FXTAS commonly appears in 50- to 70-year-old adults. Case Presentation: An 11 months old boy was referred to the hospital due to clinical presentations of productive cough seizure, mental disability, and ataxia. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Electroencephalography (EEG), hematology, biochemistry, hormone, and genetic tests were done. Triplet repeat PCR (TP PCR) showed 99 CGG repeats as permutation alleles. Conclusion: In this study, the authors reported the early onset of FXTAS in an 11 months old boy for the first time. %> http://cjns.gums.ac.ir/article-1-443-en.pdf %P 180-183 %& 180 %!
