Transcranial sonography (TCS) area of hyperechogenicity in the substantia nigra (aSN) is increased in idiopathic and genetic Parkinson’s disease (PD). We performed TCS in 34 LRRK2 G2019S mutation carriers manifesting PD, 24 non-manifesting mutation carriers and 28 idiopathic PD patients and compared them to 40 healthy controls (total n=126). Compared to controls (mean 0.15 cm2), the aSN values in all other groups were increased. The mean aSN was 0.23 cm2 in non-manifesting mutation carriers (p=0.015), 0.34 cm2 in idiopathic PD patients (p<0.0001), 0.32 cm2 in LRRK2-associated PD patients (p<0.0001). and 0.33 cm2 in the overall PD group (p<.0001). LRRK2-associated PD patients had higher aSN than non-manifesting carriers (p=0.011), but there was no significant difference in aSN between patients with idiopathic and LRRK2-associated PD (p=0.439). Our results suggest that SN pathoanatomical alterations may not be substantially different between idiopathic and LRRK2-associated PD. The findings in the non-manifesting mutation carriers suggest the presence of intermediate nigrostriatal pathology consistent with the age-dependent reduced penetrance of this mutation.
