## Abstract A man with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) had a short (CTG)n expansion in the myotonic dystrophy protein kinase gene as well as (CAG)n expansion in the androgen receptor gene in leukocytes. The patient had the characteristic clinical findings of SBMA, but none of myotonic dys
