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.

Literature regarding cases of pregnant patients with hereditary spastic paraparesis (Strumpell-Lorrain disease) and those treated by intrathecal baclofen therapy is sparse. There are currently no specific guidelines to manage pregnancy and delivery in these patients. A 42-year-old woman presented to our clinic with hereditary spastic paraparesis and was treated with intrathecal baclofen for spasticity. She conceived twice and delivered successfully by caesarean section under subarachnoid anaesthesia. The two pregnancies had favourable outcomes with no increase in spasticity and no problems encountered with the intrathecal device. In this report, we discuss the evolution of both pregnancies and the anaesthetic management for deliveries in the presence of an intrathecal catheter. Keywords: Caesarean section; case report; hereditary spastic paraparesis; intrathecal baclofen; pregnancy.
