متن کاملMultiple system atrophy.
Although the precise definition of multiple system atrophy has been difficult, a recent consensus in diagnostic criteria for multiple system atrophy has been achieved. This should lead to progress in defining the underlying pathophysiology of the neuroendocrine, autonomic and motor deficits characteristic of multiple system atrophy. Hopefully, these developments will lead to effective treatment.
متن کاملRed flags for multiple system atrophy.
The clinical diagnosis of multiple system atrophy (MSA) is fraught with difficulty and there are no pathognomonic features to discriminate the parkinsonian variant (MSA-P) from Parkinson's disease (PD). Besides the poor response to levodopa, and the additional presence of pyramidal or cerebellar signs (ataxia) or autonomic failure as major diagnostic criteria, certain other clinical features kn...

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a fatal adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder of uncertain etiopathogenesis manifesting with autonomic failure, parkinsonism, and ataxia in any combination. The underlying neuropathology affects central autonomic, striatonigral and olivopontocerebellar pathways and it is associated with distinctive glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs, Papp-Lantos bodies) that co...
