Autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia (AR-HSP) associated with thin corpus callosum was recently described in Japan, and most families were linked to chromosome 15q13-15. We report two patients from two different Brazilian families with progressive gait disturbance starting at the second decade of life, spastic paraparesis, and mental deterioration. One patient presented cerebellar ataxia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head of both patients showed a thin corpus callosum. AR-HSP with a thin corpus callosum is a rare disorder, mainly described in Japanese patients. We found only 4 Caucasian families with AR-HSP with thin corpus callosum described in the literature. Further studies including additional Caucasian families of AR-HSP with thin corpus callosum are required to delineate the genetic profile of this syndrome in occidental countries.

Hereditary spastic paraplegias constitute a larger group of disorders than expected. Autosomal dominant types are mainly composed of SPAST, Atlastin (SPG3A) and REEP1 Genetic testing is suggested mainly for these genes. The most common autosomal recessive type is SPG11, hereditary spastic paraplegia with thin corpus callosum, but SPG15 shares the same clinical features with SPG11. Genetic testing should be done for both if thin corpus callosum is present in patients. How different genes with many different biological functions, including axonal transport, mitochondrial functions, fatty acid and cholesterol pathways and DNA repair defects, cause hereditary spastic paraplegia is still unknown.
