Neurological abnormalities are associated with autonomic neuropathy, sensory and motor defects, deafness, mental retardation, Parkinsonism and dementia. The gene responsible is the

or AAAS encoding a protein called ALADIN. We report a case of a 19 year-old male, assessed when he was 10 years old in our department due to suspected storage disease. Mild mental and language retardation, hypernasal voice, sensory-motor neuropathy with autonomic involvement and signs of spastic paraparesis, alacrimia.
