Therapie der spinalen Muskelatrophie
摘要
Until the introduction of gene-based treatment approaches a few years ago, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) was the most common cause of death due to genetic diseases in infancy. The inclusion of SMA in the neonatal screening fundamentally improved the prognosis but symptomatic patients can still be expected. Close collaboration between neuromuscular centers and practitioners and healthcare structures is essential to ensure standards of care.
