A single consanguineous family with three sibs affected by giant axonal neuropathy has been reported with walking difficulty, progressive lower extremity weakness and ataxia. All affected sibs were homozygous for the c.5521A>G, p.M1841V variant in MAP1B. Two brothers homozygous for the variant were also reported to have body mass index over 40. Nerve conduction studies revealed a severe sensory motor polyneuropathy.
