Learn About Spastic Paraplegia Type 11

What is the definition of Spastic Paraplegia Type 11?
Spastic paraplegia 11 (SPG11) is a form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. People with SPG11 experience worsening muscle stiffness leading to eventual paralysis of the lower limbs, as well as a range of other neurologic symptoms that may include intellectual disability, speech difficulties (dysarthria), and reduced bladder control. Additionally, the tissue connecting the left and right halves of the brain (corpus callosum) is abnormally thin in most individuals with SPG11. SPG11 is caused by genetic changes in the SPG11 gene and is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion.
