Neuronopathy, Distal Hereditary Motor, Type Viia; Hmn7a

Description

Distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VIIa is an autosomal dominant neurologic disorder characterized by onset in the second decade of progressive distal muscle wasting and weakness affecting the upper and lower limbs and resulting in walking difficulties and hand grip. There is significant muscle atrophy of the hands and lower limbs. The disorder is associated with vocal cord paresis due to involvement of the tenth cranial nerve (summary by Barwick et al., 2012).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of distal HMN, see HMN type I (HMN1 ).
