Bassen-Kornzweig syndrome, also known as abetalipoproteinemia, is a rare inherited disorder that affects the absorption of dietary fats, cholesterol, and fat-soluble vitamins. It is caused by mutations in the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) gene. Symptoms include fatty, foul-smelling stools, failure to thrive, poor growth, and neurological complications due to vitamin deficiencies.

Tourette syndrome is also called Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome

1 answer


Yes. There are people who have both Tourette's syndrome and Asperger's Syndrome. Depending on the severity of each, sometimes Tourette's syndrome will be diagnosed before Asperger's Syndrome.

Both conditions have echolalia as a possible symptom, so if it is diagnosed as an element of Tourette's syndrome, it might not be considered as a symptom of another condition, which could delay diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome. However, Asperger's Syndrome is diagnosed based on a number of symptoms, so a diagnosis of Tourette's syndrome would probably mask only a mild case of Asperger's Syndrome.

Before Asperger's Syndrome became a recognized condition, it was diagnosed as other conditions. It is possible that one of those misdiagnoses could have been Tourette's syndrome.
