Abstract EN

Chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc) is an orphan disease, caused by mutations on chromosome 9.

Epileptic seizures of mesial temporal origin can be a predominant symptom.

We report on a 29-year-old woman with ChAc and bilateral MTS.

Previously, few patients with coexisting ChAc and MTS were reported.

The underlying pathophysiology is unknown, and further studies are needed.
