Peripheral nerve involvement in spinocerebellar ataxias.
BACKGROUND In autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias (ADCAs), it is unclear whether the associated peripheral nerve involvement is always a typical length-dependent axonopathy rather than primary neuronopathy due to neuronal degeneration in the spinal anterior horns and/or dorsal root ganglia. OBJECTIVE To study the nature and extent of peripheral nerve involvement in patients with ADCA. PAT...
متن کاملSpinocerebellar Degenerations in Japan
SCA type 6 in 20.0%, ADCA linked to chromosome 16q22.1 in 10.0%, dentatorubral pallidoluysian atrophy in 4.4%, SCA type 1 in 1.1% and SCA type 2 in 1.1%. SCA type 3 was highly prevalent in the Toyama prefecture of the Hokuriku district, particularly in the Gosei area (the western part of Toyama prefecture), with a prevalence of 19.1 per 100,000 people [10] , which is very similar to the prevale...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve involvement in Bell's palsy.
A group of patients with Bell's palsy were studied in order to disclose the presence of subclinical peripheral nerve involvement. 20 patients, 8 male and 12 female, with recent Bell's palsy as their unique disease were examined. In all cases other causes of polyneuropathy were ruled out. Patients were investigated with CSF examination, facial nerve latencies in the affected and in the sound sid...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve involvement in Batten-Spielmeyer-Vogt's disease.
Electromyography and sensory and motor nerve conduction were studied in 23 patients with Batten-Spielmeyer-Vogt's disease ("juvenile amaurotic idiocy", cerebral ceroidlipofuscinosis). A slight to moderate slowing of the sensory conduction velocity was found in the median as well as in the sural nerve, more pronounced in the distal than in the proximal segments. The findings are interpreted as e...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve involvement in sarcoidosis: an electrodiagnostic study.
The frequency of peripheral nerve involvement in sarcoidosis is uncertain. To determine how often peripheral nerves are affected in the absence of symptoms, electromyography was performed on 29 sarcoid patients and 29 age-matched controls. Nineteen sarcoid patients, compared to two controls, had abnormally low sensory amplitudes in one or more nerves, and the mean sensory amplitudes for median,...
