Hi all, again I would like to begin posting biochem questions especially for MS2 who want to review while studying MS2 subjects. Just by doing a couple questions per day I think can make a big change. These are NOT from Uworld, First aid RX, and Kaplan.
Please feel free to add yours.
A 4-year-old boy is brought to the clinic because of a 2-week history of seizures that occur about every 3 days. Medical history is relevant for developmental delay with poor sitting and limited motor movements noticed at 12 months of age. He also has delayed language skills and swallowing difficulty that developed during the past 3 months. His vision and hearing have been deteriorating. Physical examination shows muscle weakness centrally and in all extremities. Fundoscopic examination shows a red spot on the retina. Which of the following is the most likely cause of this boy’s condition?
