Abstract excerpt
Hereditary neuralgic amyotrophy (HNA) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. It is characterised by recurrent episodes of focal neuropathy involving the brachial plexus. Genetic linkage analysis has mapped HNA to chromosome 17q25 within a 3.5-cM interval flanked by the short tandem repeat markers D17S785 and D17S802. Here, we report the mutation analysis of four candidate genes. Mutation analysis was performed on...
