Three children present to the child development centre for assessment of developmental regression. The
diagnoses listed above are possible causes for developmental regression. Match the three clinical
scenarios to one diagnosis from the diagnostic suggestions above.
Scenario 1
A 3-year-old boy and his parents review a hospice. He presented previously with myoclonic jerks, optic
atrophy and progressive dementia. His parents have found it increasingly difficult to control his myoclonic
jerks and he is becoming increasingly agitated, requiring sedation. A bone marrow sample found lipofuscin
in his marrow cells. What is his diagnosis?
Scenario 2
A 14-year-old Iranian girl presents with a 6-month history of developmental regression. She has
regressed in all categories of her development and now wears nappies both day and night. She has ten
words in her own language and appears unable to communicate. There is no previous medical history to
note. She is unvaccinated. She has had all the usual childhood rashes. On clinical examination, she is well.
Her Griffiths mental scale scoring portrays her subquotient results as follows: gross motor 8.5 months,
social skills 12 months, language and hearing 14 months, and hand and eye coordination 18 months; she
was unable to carry out the performance tasks. What is the most likely cause of this girl’s developmental
regression?
Scenario 3
An 8-year-old girl presents with a 12-month history of early morning headaches with associated nausea
and vomiting before breakfast. She is otherwise fit and well. Her friends have noticed that she does not
participate in lunchtime meals as she used to. On clinical examination, she is found to have increased
reflexes and clonus on the right side. On ophthalmic examination, there is papilloedema of the left eye.
What is her diagnosis?
