Cases of neuro-ferritinopathy from Sudan

Abstract

<jats:p>Neuro-ferritnopathy (NBIA) is a bag of diseases due to abnormal iron metabolism. It has different underlying&#x0D;
genetic and enzymatic abnormalities. On the other hand, they share some radiological features. Patients&#x0D;
present with a wide range of cerebral symptoms and signs. Diagnosis depends on the semiology, genetic&#x0D;
testing and MRI imaging. No specific treatment is available for these cases and they represent a challenge&#x0D;
to the treating neurologist. Here we illustrate two interesting cases with their clinical and imaging findings&#x0D;
to raise the awareness of such rare diseases and help diagnosing them in a low- resource setting.</jats:p>
