Sandhoff Disease: Introduction

Sandhoff disease, a rare inherited disorder, gradually devastates nerve cells within the central nervous system, encompassing the brain and spinal cord. It is categorized into three primary types, distinguished by the onset of signs and symptoms: infantile, juvenile, and adult variants. Among these, the infantile manifestation stands as the most prevalent and severe, manifesting during infancy itself. Typically, infants affected by this form of the disease seem healthy until around 3 to 6 months of age, after which a noticeable decline in their developmental progress occurs, accompanied by weakening of movement-related muscles.
