MedGen UID:
816624
•Concept ID:
C3810294
•
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: Spastic paraplegia 61, autosomal recessive
SNOMED CT: Autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia type 61 (726611001)
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal recessive inheritance
MedGen UID:

C0441748
•
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele).

Definition

Autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia-61 (SPG61) is a complicated, early-onset spastic paraplegia (summary by Chukhrova et al., 2019). [from OMIM]

Scissor gait
MedGen UID:
68547
•Concept ID:
C0231698
•
Finding
A type of spastic paraparetic gait in which the muscle tone in the adductors is marked. It is characterized by hypertonia and flexion in the legs, hips and pelvis accompanied by extreme adduction leading to the knees and thighs hitting, or sometimes even crossing, in a scissors-like movement. The opposing muscles (abductors) become comparatively weak from lack of use.
