Myoclonus and generalized digestive dysmotility in triple A syndrome with AAAS gene mutation.

[triple a syndrome]

We report on the case of a 25-year-old woman with triple A syndrome and gene mutation, who, during the long follow-up period of 23 years, developed myoclonus of the face and the upper limbs (with normal brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy) and widespread digestive dysmotility, involving small bowels and gall bladder. These features, not previously described, illustrate an extension of the cerebral and digestive neurological involvement in this syndrome.
