Microcephaly-complex motor and sensory axonal neuropathy syndrome is an extremely rare subtype of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy characterized by severe, rapidly-progressing, distal, symmetric polyneuropathy and microcephaly (which can be evident in utero) with intact cognition. Clinically it presents with delayed motor development, hypotonia, absent or reduced deep tendon reflexes, progressive muscle wasting and weakness and scoliosis.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for microcephaly-complex motor and sensory axonal neuropathy syndrome has been reported in the published literature.
Estimated prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000 (VERY_RARE).
No clinical trials have been registered for microcephaly-complex motor and sensory axonal neuropathy syndrome.
83 publications have been identified in PubMed for microcephaly-complex motor and sensory axonal neuropathy syndrome. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (54%), Review / Meta-Analysis (18%), and Epidemiology / Natural History (12%).
