Abstract

NBIA (Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation) is a rare disorder with varied age group of
presentation but mostly detected in childhood. It is a progressive disease with basic extra-pyramidal
symptoms and an autosomal recessive nature. The incidence is found to be very low depending on
the various subtypes in this group, most common being PKAN (Pantothenate Kinase Associated
Neurodegeneration). We here highlight a case of a 16 years old male, radiologically proven as NBIA
and currently on regular follow up at our institute.
