Three siblings with giant axonal neuropathy caused by a novel variant in GAN gene: the first report from Egypt
Abstract Background Giant axonal neuropathy (GAN) is a rare inherited neurodegenerative disease that affects the peripheral and central nervous systems. Herein, we describe three Egyptian siblings with GAN who showed differences in clinical severity. Case Presentation. Case 1 had slowly progressive...
