"Ears of the Lynx" MRI Sign is Associated with SPG11 and SPG15 Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
AJNR 40:199-203, Pascual, B.,et al, 2019
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The ears of the lynx sign on FLAIR MR imaging is highly specific for the most common genetic subtypes of hereditary spastic paraplegia with a thin corpus callosum. When this sign is present, there is a high likelihood of a genetic mutation, particularly associated with SPG11 or SPG15, even in the absence of a family history.
