Abstract
Fasciculations and cramps may occur in motor neuron disease or as part of a more benign syndrome. A man with apparently benign fasciculations and cramps for 4 years developed progressive muscle weakness and wasting. Such a previously undocumented evolution of benign fasciculations and cramps to motor neuron disease may further implicate anterior horn cell dysfunction in the pathogenesis of muscle fasciculation-cramp syndromes.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
