| Popis: | An epidemiological study was conducted in France to estimate the prevalence of adrenoleukodystrophy, a severe neurologic X-linked disorder affecting boys and young men. 129 cases were collected. Analysis of all cases born between 1956 and 1986 with available clinical history allowed the calculation of the lowest estimation of the prevalence: 1 in 100,000 male births. |
