Difference between 6-Pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase deficiency and Dystonia

6-Pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase deficiency vs. Dystonia

6-Pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder that causes malignant hyperphenylalaninemia due to tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency. Dystonia is a neurological movement disorder syndrome in which sustained or repetitive muscle contractions result in twisting and repetitive movements or abnormal fixed postures.

Similarities between 6-Pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase deficiency and Dystonia

6-Pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase deficiency and Dystonia have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Dystonia, Hypertonia, L-DOPA, Oculogyric crisis.
