Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) and a complicated form of familial spastic paraparesis (spastic paraplegia 2 [SPG2]) are X-linked development disorders of myelin formation caused by a mutation in the proteolipid protein (PLP) gene.Spastic paraplegia 2 is allelic to PMD.

Although this patient might be heterozygous for a mutation of the extraexonic PLP gene sequences or of other unknown X-linked PLP associated genes, we speculate that this case had a dysmyelinating disease with an autosomal recessive trait characterized by the same phenotype as that of PMD.

As only 10 - 30 % of patients with a Pelizaeus Merzbacher disease (PMD) phenotype carry mutations of the proteolipid protein (PLP) gene, we were interested if the degree and time-dependent progression of abnormal MRI and MRS findings would discriminate patients with mutations of the PLP gene (Pelizaeus Merzbacher disease, PMD) from patients without a defect of the PLP gene (Pelizaeus Merzbacher-like disease, PMLD).
