Combined oxidative phosphorylation defect type 7
Synonyms: COXPD7 | Severe C12ORF65-related COXPD | Severe C12ORF65-related combined oxidative phosphorylation defect
Combined oxidative phosphorylation defect type 7 is a rare mitochondrial disease due to a defect in mitochondrial protein synthesis characterized by a variable phenotype that includes onset in infancy or early childhood of failure to thrive and psychomotor regression (after initial normal development) as well as ocular manifestations (such as ptosis nystagmus optic atrophy ophthalmoplegia and reduced vision). Additional manifestations include bulbar paresis with facial weakness hypotonia difficulty chewing dysphagia mild dysarthria ataxia global muscle atrophy and areflexia. It has a relatively slow disease progression with patients often living into the third decade of life.
