Signs and Symptoms
Patients who suffer from the Roussy-Levy Syndrome experience symptoms such as gait ataxia, pes cavus, areflexia, eventually associated with muscle atrophy, postural tremors, limb ataxia, kyphoscoliosis, and sensory loss.[1] This disorder is also characterized by slow nerve conduction and demyelination of nerve fibers with onion bulb formations in nerve biopsy specimens.[2]
