“…The detected mutation in our studied cases is the same as the one commonly reported in SSS patients of Arab origin from the Middle East. 1 , 9 , 10 , 14 , 15 Available genetic data, including same mutation in all Arab patients from Iran and other Arab populations in the Middle East, is consistent with a founder effect mutation which spread to the Middle Eastern area. 10 Thus, until now—except for the 12-bp deletion—different mutations in the TBCE gene have been reported in other studies.…”

“…To our knowledge, only four cases of SSS were reported previously in the Tunisian population. 3,4 In this rare autosomal recessive syndrome, neurological manifestations were not detailed in all previous publications. The first case was originally described by Sanjad et al 1 in Saudi Arabia in12 cases in 1991.…”

“…Almost all the patients were from Arab countries (Morocco, Egypt, Oman, Jordon, Kuwait, Sudan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Tunisia), and only three were from non-Arab origin (Belgium and India) [2,6,7,[9][10][11].…”

“…SSS molecular pathology has been shown to be due to mutations in the TBCE gene on chromosome 1q42-q43. All the affected patients of Arab origin have shown homozygosity for a 12 bp (155-166 del) deletion in exon 3 of the TBCE gene [8,11].…”
