Abstract:
A case of a hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy (HSAN) with severe medical complications that had been reported as nonprogressive HSAN type II has been followed and treated for a period of 10 years, and is now considered to be progressive HSAN type III, is presented. Current difficulties in the present form of the classification of HSAN, the necessity to observe these cases for longer periods and possible prolongation of survival with appropriate supportive treatment are emphasized.
