Description : Distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VIIa is an autosomal dominant neurologic
disorder characterized by onset in the second decade of progressive distal muscle
wasting and weakness affecting the upper and lower limbs and resulting in walking
difficulties and hand grip. There is significant muscle atrophy of the hands and lower
limbs. The disorder is associated with vocal cord paresis due to involvement of the
tenth cranial nerve (summary by Barwick et al., 2012). For a general phenotypic description
and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of distal HMN, see HMN type I (HMN1; 182960).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the solute carrier family 5 (choline transporter), member 7
gene (SLC5A7, 608761.0001);
