Summary

Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type VII (HSAN7) is characterized by congenital absence of pain sensation resulting in recurrent injuries and self-inflicted wounds. Severe pruritis, intestinal dysmotility, and hyperhydrosis may be present (Woods et al., 2015; Salvatierra et al., 2018). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, see HSAN1 (162400). [from OMIM]
