ABSTRACT
Introduction: Neurophysiological studies and particularly motor nerve conduction studies are very important because they give us certain diagnostic information of different pathologies including Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 2, the most frequent form in Cuba and in Holguín, whose prevalence is considered as one of the highest in the world. The purpose of this study is in order to determine the relationship between motor conduction parameters of facial nerve and facial types.
Patients and methods: We studied 101 patients with clinical and molecular diagnosis of SCA 2 and 36 presimptomatic relatives. In all cases were made molecular studies, oral exam and face measurements to determing facial type after a previous facial nerve motor conduction study of VII cranial pair.
Results: These showed a latency prolongation of the potential in patients and of the duration both in SCA 2 patients as it’s relatives in comparison with healthy subjects and in the asymptomatic bearers as compared to the reference pattern (control group of healthy subjects), and the non-existing relationship between facial type and motor nerve conduction parameters.
Conclusions: The facial nerve in SCA 2 patients and their relatives. There’s a positive proof of myelin damage.
