Abstract excerpt

Leukodystrophies are a group of genetically determined disorders that affect development or maintenance of central nervous system myelin. Leukodystrophies have a reported incidence of 1 in 7500 live births, but fewer than half of patients receive a specific diagnosis. In this review, the authors discuss types of leukodystrophies: their prevalence, clinical presentation, symptoms, and diagnosis, as well as current...
