Other typical features include: insidious onset of lower motor neuron signs due to anterior horn cell involvement, absence of upper motor neuron signs, slow progression followed by stabilization within a few years,, and a benign symptomatic disease course. MMA is particularly prevalent in Asia although it is encountered worldwide.
