Stereotyped Upper Limb Movement in MECP2 Duplication Syndrome

Abstract

A 23-year-old man had epilepsy, mental retardation, and a stereotyped movement (figure 1 and video1), which was exacerbated by emotion. No abnormality was detected in the EEG during this movement. Array comparative genomic hybridization showed a Xq28 duplication: arr [GRCh37]Xq28(153032004_153406233)x2 (figure 2).

Stereotyped Upper Limb Movement in MECP2 Duplication Syndrome

“…In the Video NeuroImage article “Stereotyped Upper Limb Movement in MECP2 Duplication Syndrome” by Wakabayashi et al, 1 the first sentence should read: “A 23-year-old man had epilepsy, intellectual disability, and a stereotyped movement (Figure 1 and Video 1), which was exacerbated by emotion.” The authors regret the error.…”
