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

EXTRASKELETAL MYXOID CHONDROSARCOMA

Alternate names

EXTRASKELETAL MYXOID CHONDROSARCOMA Is also known as emc

Description

Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of chondroblastic origin. The tumors are most commonly found in middle-aged and elderly individuals, are more common among men, and are often detected as deep-seated lesions in the extremities. Despite their relatively low-grade malignancy, recurrence and metastasis may appear many years after the initial diagnosis. Histologic tissue section examination reveals a mixture of cellular and myxoid stromal components (Panagopoulos et al., 2002).

Most common symptoms of EXTRASKELETAL MYXOID CHONDROSARCOMA

  • Neoplasm
  • Chondrosarcoma
  • Soft tissue neoplasm
