MASA syndrome is a rare hereditary neurological disorder.
The name is an acronym describing the four major symptoms – Mental retardation, Aphasia, Shuffling gait, and Adducted thumbs.[1]
It has been associated with L1CAM.[2] (The term “CRASH”, for “corpus callosum hypoplasia, retardation, adducted thumbs, spastic paraplegia, and hydrocephalus” has also been used to describe L1CAM-related disorders.)[3]
