Sažetak
INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare disorder which presents as a loss of (spinal) lower motor neuron with consequential muscular atrophy. It is caused by absence of SMN1 gene on chromosome 5 due to exon 7, or additionally exon 8, deletion. Presence or absence of SMN2 and NAIP genes determine the severity and time of onset of the disease. SMA is divided in 5 types ranging from 0 to 4 with 0 being the most severe with the earliest time of onset and 4 being the mildest with the latest time of onset.
