Description
Summary:Perry syndrome is a rare, adult-onset, autosomal dominant, progressive neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by parkinsonism, weight loss, psychiatric symptoms, and central hypoventilation. We report the case of a 51-year-old man, whose condition was genetically identified as Perry syndrome. Here we focus the polysomnographic (PSG) findings and discuss the correlations between PSG and neuropathological findings.
