Leukodystrophies are dysmyelinating disorders, in which there is an abnormal myelin formation due to a metabolic disturbance affecting the white matter. They are different from demyelinating disorders such as [multiple sclerosis]?, in which myelin is formed normally, but is lost by immunologic dysfunction or other reasons. |
