Neurogenic involvement in a case of oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy.

Muscle & nerve - 1 Jan 2002

Boukriche Yassine, Maisonobe Thierry, Masson Catherine

Abstract excerpt

We report the case of a 65-year-old man with a 15-year history of oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) harboring a (GCG)11 mutation of the poly(A)-binding protein 2 (PABP2) gene. He developed, early in the course of the disease, a severe chronic axonal neuropathy. Although the primary myopathic origin of the disease appears to be established, a small number of cases of OPMD with neuropathic features have...
