SPINAL MUSCULAR SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPHYATROPHYAutosomal recessive disorders
characterized by degeneration of the anterior horn cells in the spinal cord and motor nuclei in the lower brainstem
different forms of 5q-SMA are caused by biallelic deletions or mutations in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene on chromosome 5q13.2
SPINAL MUSCULAR SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPHYATROPHY SMA1: Werdnig-Hoffmann disease or Infantile spinal
muscular atrophy◦ the most common and severe type◦ typically presents in the neonatal period◦ symptoms progress rapidly, and the majority of infants
die before one year of age from respiratory failure SMA 2 (intermediate form): 3 and 15 months SMA 3 (mild form; Kugelberg-Welander disease):
after 1 year◦ Although the muscle weakness affected motor function,
walking, transfer from lying or sitting to the standing position, and stair-climbing were possible in some children. The outcome depends primarily upon the severity of muscle weakness at presentation rather than the age of onset, but earlier onset tends to correlate with greater weakness
SMA 4 (Adult onset)of SMA (type 4) 2nd or 3rd decade of life
ManifestationsManifestations diffuse symmetric proximal muscle weakness LE >UE Absent or markedly decreased DTR SMA 1: severe symmetric flaccid paralysis and are
unable to sit unsupported. an alert expression, furrowed brow, and normal eye
movements weak cry, poor suck and swallow reflexes, pooling of
secretions, aspiration, and fasciculations of the tongue (bulbar muscles).
All SMA types are associated with a restrictive, progressive respiratory insufficiency
In SMA 1, respiratory muscle weakness leads to progressive respiratory failure. The intercostal muscles typically are more affected than the diaphragm, resulting in paradoxical breathing and the development of a characteristic bell-shaped chest deformity. Cardiac muscle is not affected.
DiagnosisDiagnosis Molecular gene testing Electromyography — abnormal spontaneous activity with
fibrillations and positive sharp waves The mean duration and amplitude of motor unit action
potentials are increased, and many are polyphasic. Nerve conduction velocities are normal or slightly decreased, and sensory nerve action potentials are normal.
Serum creatine kinase concentration typically is normal or slightly elevated, although in rare cases it can be moderately elevated.
Muscle biopsy — Muscle biopsy reveals large groups of circular atrophic type 1 and 2 muscle fibers interspersed among fascicles of hypertrophied type 1 fibers
The enlarged fibers have been reinnervated by the sprouting of surviving nerves and are 3-4x larger than normal.
Histologic diagnosis may be more difficult to make in newborns because only widespread atrophy of muscle fibers may be seen. A later repeat biopsy is needed to demonstrate the mixture of hypertrophied and atrophic fibers seen after reinnervation occurs.
ManagementManagementTreatment for SMA is supportive and
directed at providing nutrition and respiratory assistance as needed, and treating or preventing complications of weakness.
Spinal bracing to delay the development of progressive scoliosis that is caused by muscle weakness
Secretion mobilization and clearance techniques involve manual or mechanical chest physiotherapy with postural drainage, and manual cough assistance and/or use of a mechanical insufflation/exsufflation device
Tracheostomy
