Summary

Leukodystrophies are heterogeneous genetic disorders characterized by the selective involvement of white matter in the central nervous system (CNS) (1, 2). Inherited leukodystrophies are diseases of the myelin, including abnormal myelin development, hypomyelination, or degeneration of myelin (3, 4).

Most of these disorders fall into one of three categories; lysosomal storage diseases, peroxisomal disorders, and diseases caused by mitochondrial dysfunction and each leukodystrophy has distinctive clinical, biochemical, pathologic, and radiologic features (5).
