This study provides epidemiological data on acute infantile (ASMA) and chronic childhood spinal (CSMA) muscular atrophy in Warsaw for the period 1976-1985. All calculations are based on the assumption that ASMA and CSMA result from mutations at two different gene loci. The incidence of ASMA and CSMA was 1 in 19474 live births with a corresponding gene and carrier frequency of 714 x 10(-5) and 1 in 70, respectively. The prevalence of CSMA for the year 1985 was 1.26 x 10(-5). These figures are higher than in similar studies in other countries. This fact might be connected with the careful ascertainment in this study.
