Distal Hereditary Motor Neuropathy Type 2

Description

Distal spinal muscular atrophy-2 is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder characterized by onset of distal muscle weakness and wasting affecting the lower and upper limbs in the first decade; there is no sensory involvement (summary by Li et al., 2015).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of DSMA, see HMN1 (OMIM ).
