Abstract:
We report two brothers with the clinical symptoms and neuropathological findings of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (HSAN) type IV but with normal sweating function and absence of recurrent fever. We propose that our patients may have a lower degree of expression of the genetic defect underlying HSAN type IV or that they represent a separate genetic entity.
