A4V superoxide dismutase mutation in apparently sporadic ALS resembling neuralgic amyotrophy.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis : official publication of the World Federation of Neurology Research Group on Motor Neuron Diseases - 1 Mar 2006

Abstract excerpt

We report a case of apparently sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in a young pregnant woman presenting subacutely with severe left shoulder pain followed by progressive weakness and wasting of the left arm, mimicking neuralgic amyotrophy. She was later found electrophysiologically to have widespread denervation involving more than just the arm and an alanine for valine substitution in codon 4 (A4V) in...
