INTRODUCTION Glucose Transporter Type 1 Deficiency Syndrome (GLUT1-DS) is caused by the SLC2A1 gene muta tion, which encodes the glucose transporter proteins to the brain Neurological manifestations occur in three main domains: seizures, abnormal movements, and cognitive disorders. The diagnosis is presumed upon the finding of low CSF glucose and confirmed by the gene molecular analysis. Ac curate diagnosis is important because it has a specific treatment, which is ketogenic diet. OBJECTIVE To analyze two SD-GLUT1 pediatric patients with unusual phenotype. CLINICAL CASE We present the case of two siblings who presented absence seizures and a paroxysmal movement disorder. Both patients were studied, finding low CSF glucose. The diagnosis of GLUT1-DS was confirmed with molecular analysis. Specific treatment with ketogenic diet achieved good response in both cases. Con clusions: We present their peculiar clinical characteristics that allowed us to suspect this wide phe notypic spectrum. Correct and timely diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve the quality of life of those affected.
