Summary

Motor neurone diseases comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders that affect the upper motor neurone and/or the lower motor neurone. Both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and primary lateral sclerosis fall into the category of motor neurone diseases. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is usually defined as a fatal neurodegenerative disorder that progressively affects both the upper and lower motor neurone, with mean survival between three and five years, although long-term survival may occur, albeit infrequently. Primary lateral sclerosis is an idiopathic, non-familial neurodegenerative disorder of the upper motor neurone.

Key words:
motor neurone diseases – primary lateral sclerosis – amyotrophic lateral sclerosis – spasticity – motor evoked potentials – cognitive deficit
