TLDR
Ultrasound nerve cross‐sectional area of patients affected with axonal neuropathy usually shows normal value, but Cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) seems to represent an exception, showing smaller CSA.
Abstract
Ultrasound nerve cross‐sectional area (CSA) of patients affected with axonal neuropathy usually shows normal value. Cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) seems to represent an exception, showing smaller CSA, but previous reports did not test for biallelic RFC1 gene repeat expansions.
