Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX), first described in 1937, is a rare genetic disorder of bile acid synthesis that can cause developmental and cognitive disability, irreversible neurological damage and premature death. Left untreated, the syndrome is slowly progressive but can now be considered a treatable rare neurologic disease of lipid and bile metabolism. Early identification of this disorder, for example with newborn screening, would be highly significant as the burden of disease if left untreated can be profound, and morbidity and mortality easily prevented through early detection and treatment. The book collects the experience of expert physician-scientists and researchers from all over the world, beginning with the history of the disease and providing updates on the new molecular genetic data, the therapies and the international patient advocacy organizations, also with chapters reporting the experiences of the patients and calling for improved international basic research and clinical collaboration, aiming to advance understanding and enhance outcomes for CTX patients and their families, and foster patient group partnerships. The volume stems from the proceedings of an international meeting held in Jerusalem, Israel, where this disease was investigated for many years by a pioneer in the field, Prof. Vladimir Berginer at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. This meeting was hosted by the CTX Alliance, a patient advocacy group based in the USA. 410 0$aMedicine Series 606 $aNeurology 606 $aPediatrics 606 $aMedical genetics 606 $aInternal medicine 606 $aNeurology 606 $aPediatrics 606 $aClinical Genetics 606 $aInternal Medicine 615 0$aNeurology. 615 0$aPediatrics. 615 0$aMedical genetics. 615 0$aInternal medicine. 615 14$aNeurology. 615 24$aPediatrics. 615 24$aClinical Genetics. 615 24$aInternal Medicine. 676 $a616.39 700 $aFederico$b Antonio$0343850 701 $aDeBarber$b Andrea E$01852727 701 $aFalik-Zaccai$b Tzipora C$01852728 701 $aHuidekoper$b Hidde H$01852729 701 $aSteiner$b Robert D$018807 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911034962703321 996 $aCerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis$94448611 997 $aUNINA
