Hereditary Sensory And Autonomic Neuropathy Type 8

Description

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type VIII is an autosomal recessive neurologic disorder characterized by congenital insensitivity to pain resulting in ulceration to the fingers, tongue, lips, and other distal appendages. Affected individuals may also have decreased sweating and tear production (summary by Chen et al., 2015).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, see HSAN1A (OMIM ).
