ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical , EMG and genetic characteristics of children with hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies phenotype (HNPP).Methods One case of HNPP diagnosed by gene were reported, and combined with the literature , the clinical, electromyography and genetic characteristics were summarized.Results Female patient, 11 years and 8 months, left foot could not be dorsal flexion and numbness appeared after the movement in 10 d before admission ,EMG showed multiple peripheral nerve injury .Patient's father and uncle were very similar to the history .Genetic examination showed 1363.2 kb heterozygous deletion on the chr1714095421 -15458636, and the diagnosis was HNPP .Conclusions When limb weakness happened in children after slight stretch or compression , perform EMG examination as early as possible .Children with extensive peripheral nerve damage , limited limb paralysis , and a similar family history , should pay attention to HNPP , and gene examination should be given .
