초록
Neuroinflammation such as reactive gliosis and microglial activations are important pathological findings of ALS. We present a first autopsy case of ALS in Korea related with neuroinflammatory change. A 67-year-old ALS patient suddenly expired due to accidental head trauma. Gross autopsy finding showed marked atrophic change in spinal cord. Pathological finding include a marked loss of motor neurons, reactive gliosis and microglial infiltrations. These findings suggest neuroinflammation may play a role in pathogenesis of ALS.
