adrenoleukodystrophy - degenerative disorder of myelin sheath covering nerves Definition for adrenoleukodystrophy Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a degenerative disorder of myelin, a complex fatty neural tissue that insulates many nerves of the central and peripheral nervous systems. more Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a degenerative disorder of myelin, a complex fatty neural tissue that insulates many nerves of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Without myelin, nerves are unable to conduct an impulse, leading to increasing disability as myelin destruction increases and intensifies. The victims of ALD are typically male, and the disease begins its expression around the ages 5 to 10. The disease is usually inherited in a sex-linked manner on the X chromosome. less some common symptoms abnormal gait muscle weakness in foot (feet) paralysis rash some related diagnoses 1 - 7 of 80 diagnoses intracranial tumor subdural hematoma spinal cord trauma transient ischemic attacks head injury Guillain-Barre Syndrome intracranial arteriovenous malformations   more do i have 'adrenoleukodystrophy'?
