ABSTRACT
Hypomyelinating leukodystrophies (HLDs) are a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by decreased myelination in the central nervous system, with diverse clinical manifestations like psychomotor retardation and dyskinesia.Some HLDs patients have epilepsy, microcephaly and other clinical manifestations.At present, there is no specific treatment of HLDs, and the prognosis is usually poor.At present, with the wide application of gene screening in clinical practice, many pathogenic genes related to HLDs have been found.It is particularly important to clarify the pathogenesis and clinical phenotypic changes of HLDs.
