Abstract

Horizontal Gaze Palsy with Progressive Scoliosis (HGPPS) is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome of hind brain maldevelopment associated with ocular and skeletal manifestations. To the best of our knowledge there have been no case reports from India although a family of Indian decent has been reported from Saudi Arabia. The clinical and MRI features along with its co-occurrence with stroke in young will be described in this paper.
