BACKGROUND

Finnish amyloid variety is a rare familial amiloidosis polyneuropathy essentially observed in Finland. It concerns about six hundred people in the world in which five hundred reside in Finland.

METHODS

We report a case of a 58-year-old French woman with a 10-year history of lattice cornea dystrophy. She consulted in January 2004 for impaired swallowing, facial paralysis principally of the right superior territory and symptoms of arthritis which had developed a few months earlier. Observation revealed facial cutis laxa, tongue amyotrophy and some fasciculation. Electroneuromyography showed chronic neurogenic involvement of the facial muscles. Limbs and the sympathetic neuronal system were free of involvement. Pathological examination revealed areas of peri vascular amiloid deposits. Molecular biology confirmed the diagnosis of Finnish amiloidosis: substitution of aspartic acid by tyrosine in the 187 codon in the 9th chromosome (gelsoline gene). This mutation has been previously found in Denmark and the Czech Republic.

CONCLUSIONS

Finnish amiloidosis is a familial polyneuropathy characterized by an association of cornea lattice dystrophy, cutis laxa and a chronic neurogenic involvement of the cranial nerves. Two mutations are known. Life expectancy is not affected, but quality of life is altered.
