Disease characteristics

Excerpted from the GeneReview: Congenital Mirror Movements
The disorder of congenital mirror movements (CMM) is characterized by early-onset, obvious mirror movements (involuntary movements of one side of the body that mirror intentional movements on the opposite side) in individuals who typically have no other clinical signs or symptoms. Although mirror movements vary in severity, most affected individuals have strong and sustained mirror movements of a lesser amplitude than the corresponding voluntary movements. Mirror movements usually persist throughout life, without deterioration or improvement, and are not usually associated with subsequent onset of additional neurologic manifestations. However, a subset of affected individuals with a heterozygous pathogenic variant in DCC may have CMM with abnormalities of the corpus callosum and concomitant cognitive and/or neuropsychiatric issues. [from GeneReviews]

Additional description

From OMIM
Congenital mirror movements-4 is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by involuntary movements on either side of the body that accompany and mirror intentional movements on the opposite side. Mirror movements usually involve the upper limb and hands, resulting in difficulty performing pure unimanual movements. The pathophysiology is probably related to developmental abnormalities of fiber decussation in the corticospinal tract (summary by Meneret et al., 2017). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of mirror movements, see MRMV1 (157600).  http://www.omim.org/entry/618264
