    Abstract:
    Dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) is a CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion disorder with an autosomal-dominant mode of inheritance and very low prevalence in Europe. We herein report the clinical characteristics of the first Austrian DRPLA family. Genetic analysis revealed the presence of a common European haplotype, suggesting a founder mutation in Europe.
