Clinical heterogeneity in a family with flail arm syndrome and review of hnRNPA1‐related spectrum

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1910-1917, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Flail arm syndrome (FAS) is one of the atypical subtypes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Mutations in hnRNPA1 encoding heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) A1 are a rare genetic cause of ALS. Herein, marked clinical heterogeneity of FAS in a pedigree with a known hnRNPA1 variant was described to raise early ...
