Enrollment

100 participants

Start Date

Nov 21, 2023

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Cadasil CADASIL (Diagnosis)

Summary

The project aims to retrospectively and prospectively analyze a population of CADASIL patients in order to study the natural history of the disease by correlating the symptom spectrum with genetic risk and specific neuroradiological and biological markers \- Stratifying patients according to their disease risk, this could contribute to the discovery of personalized therapeutic targets.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria3

patients of either sex older than 18 years of age;
finding of a pathogenic mutation on genetic analysis of NOTCH3;
in the absence of unambiguous mutation, presence of characteristic deposits (GOM) within small vessels at skin biopsy
