Makrosefali, hipotoni, gelişme geriliği, nöbetler, optik atrofi ve distoni gibi klinik bulgular eşlik edebilmektedir. Psikomotor gelişme geriliği, hipotoni ve makrosefalisi olan, yapılan tetkikleri sonucunda Canavan hastalığı tanısı alan 3 hastayı sunduk. KW - Canavan hastalığı KW - makrosefali KW - gelişme geriliği N2 - Canavan disease, is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by decreased function of the enzyme aspartoacylase.
