Foie-Alajouanin Syndrome

Foix Aladajuanin, a neurologist known for his French studies of Fualcawi syndrome (another name for this condition is Foix Aladajouanan), was one of the first specialists to study such a rare hereditary disease associated with altered reflexes and movements. That is, in a healthy state, a person normally develops natural activity, thanks to which our body can independently coordinate movements, prevent the possibility of falling, and the development of varicose veins. But with the development of this disease, obstacles to the formation of natural reflexes appear: the protective reaction is lost or works in a completely different, inadequate way. The cause of the development of this disease is most often a hereditary predisposition, and this is where the close attention of doctor Fua Alajourniel is focused.



**Foie-Aladjouanine syndrome** or “Foie-Aladjoan syndrome” is a fairly rare disease of the nervous system that is associated with increased levels of antispinal factor of neurotrophic glial cells. It was first described in 1926 by French neurologist François A. Foy and his colleague Thierry A. Alajuna.

Foix Alage syndrome is very common in tropical Africa, affecting 16% of people in Guinea, Nigeria and Senegal, but its symptoms can also occur in many other countries.

Symptoms of Foix Alagania syndrome * Weakness and fatigue * Numbness and pain in the legs * Difficulty moving * Confusion in speech and thinking * Paralysis of the limbs

With age, the likelihood of developing the syndrome increases, and it is not yet clear whether it is a hereditary genetic disease or simply associated with aging of the body and changes in the nervous system.

Treatment of Foix Aluajin syndrome is performed by neurologists and may include drug therapy, physical therapy and surgery.
