In a 5-year-old boy, an early onset psychomotor retardation with non-progressive ataxia and without dysmorphic features, associated with lysosomal storage disease found on ultrastructural examination of the conjunctiva, led to the diagnosis of Salla disease. This was supported by a tenfold excretion of urinary free sialic acid, without abnormal oligosacchariduria or anomaly in lysosomal enzymes. This boy is a native of Southern France. Screening of urinary sialic acid has to be introduced in aetiological investigations of patients with apparently non-progressive psychomotor retardation associated with ataxia or dystonic movements.
