Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Introduction: Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) is a neurodegenerative disease which presents heterogeneously with symptoms and signs of parkinsonism, ataxia and autonomic dysfunction. Although MSA typically occurs sporadically, rare pathology-proven MSA families following either autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant patterns have been described, indicating a heritable contribution to the pathogenesis.
