Zusammenfassung: | Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies,comprises a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited peripheral neuropathies. Clinically it is characterized by progressive distal weakness, muscle atrophy, distal sensory loss and loss of deep tendon reflexes. Following electrophysiological criteria, CMT is divided into two main forms: |
