Two brothers aged 17 and 14 years had HSAN type 1 as both had big ulcers on feet, mutilation, dissociated anaesthesia, absent ankle jerks and normal hands. Probably these are first cases of HSAN type 1 in Indian literature.

Clinical, pathological and genetic characterization of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1 (HSAN I).

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type I (HSAN I) is the most frequent type of hereditary neuropathy that primarily affects sensory neurons. The genetic locus for HSAN I has been mapped to chromosome 9q22.1-22.3 and recently the gene was identified as SPTLC1, encoding serine palmitoyltransferase, long chain base subunit-1. Sequencing in HSAN I families have previously identified mutat...

A novel homozygous mutation in the WNK1/HSN2 gene causing hereditary sensory neuropathy type 2.

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 2 is a rare disorder caused by recessive mutations in the WNK1/HSN2 gene located on chromosome 12p13.33. Phenotype of the patients is characterized by severe sensory loss affecting all sensory modalities. We report a novel homozygous Lys179fsX182 (HSN2); Lys965fsX968 (WNK1/HSN2) mutation causing an early childhood onset hereditary sensory and aut...
