AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS
Alternate names
AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS Is also known as als, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 1, autosomal dominant, fals, lou gehrig disease, charcot disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 1, familial
Description
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive muscular paralysis reflecting degeneration of motor neurons in the primary motor cortex, corticospinal tracts, brainstem and spinal cord.
Most common symptoms of AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS
- Microcephaly
- Muscle weakness
- Pain
- Cataract
- Spasticity

CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE, AXONAL, TYPE 2CC; CMT2CC
Alternate names
CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE, AXONAL, TYPE 2CC; CMT2CC Is also known as charcot-marie-tooth neuropathy, type 2cc
Description
Axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2CC is an autosomal dominant peripheral neuropathy that predominantly affects the lower limbs, resulting in muscle weakness and atrophy and gait impairment. Other features include distal sensory impairment and less severe involvement of the upper limbs. The age at onset and severity are variable (summary by Rebelo et al., 2016).For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of axonal CMT type 2, see CMT2A (OMIM ).
Most common symptoms of CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE, AXONAL, TYPE 2CC; CMT2CC
- Muscle weakness
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Gait disturbance
- Myopathy
- Hyporeflexia
