Costeff syndrome
Other names3-Methylglutaconic Aciduria Type III, Costeff Optic Atrophy Syndrome, Optic Atrophy Plus Syndrome
This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

Costeff syndrome, or 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type III, is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the OPA3 gene.[1] It is typically associated with the onset of visual deterioration (optic atrophy) in early childhood followed by the development of movement problems and motor disability in later childhood, occasionally along with mild cases of cognitive deficiency.[2] The disorder is named after Hanan Costeff, the doctor who first described the syndrome in 1989.
