متن کاملVincristine treatment revealing asymptomatic hereditary motor sensory neuropathy type 1A.
A 5 year old boy developed severe weakness after receiving vincristine for treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Although weakness improved after the discontinuation of vincristine, other symptoms suggestive of a neuropathy persisted. Neurophysiological and genetic analysis at age 8 years indicated that vincristine had induced symptoms of a hereditary sensory motor neuropathy type 1A, whi...
متن کاملAbnormalities of visual function in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy.
Visual function was studied in a group of 15 patients with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN). Psychophysical measures of luminance and chromatic threshold and temporal contrast sensitivity were undertaken, together with visual evoked potentials (VEPs), visual fields and clinical neuro-ophthalmological examination. A patchy loss of visual function was found in individual cases of HM...
متن کامل[Clinical practice of hereditary motor neuropathy (HMN) and hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (HSAN)].
Inherited neuropathy is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of neuropathies, the main category becomes Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy (CMT), also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN), distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN), and hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy (HSAN). At least 80 genes have been associated with CMT, HMN or HSAN, a precise molecular diag...
متن کاملDiaphragmatic weakness in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy.
Six patients severely affected by hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN), four type I and two type II, had clinical evidence of diaphragmatic weakness. One presented with cardiorespiratory failure secondary to nocturnal hypoventilation, and three others were unable to lie flat because of dyspnoea. Diaphragmatic paralysis should be considered as a cause of respiratory or cardiac failure ...
