N.B. Around 50% of children or adults diagnosed with leukodystrophy never get their condition fully classified, in which case their condition will probably be known throughout their life simply as 'leukodystrophy', 'progressive leukodystrophy' or an unclassified demyelinating disease.
This list is not definitive, but contains most of the main manifestations of the disease types. Many other names you may come across might well be other names for a type listed here.
