Three types of MND are recognised but the distinction is somewhat artificial since most patients eventually develop features of all three:

  • progressive muscular atrophy
  • amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
  • bulbar involvement - either:
    • spastic: pseudobulbar palsy
    • flaccid: bulbar palsy
    • mixed: progressive bulbar palsy
