Informations about the disease

Clinical Comment

Among the hereditary sensory and motor neuropathies (Charcot-Marie-Tooth diseases; CMTs), some CMT2 subtypes, the CMT4 and some intermediate forms are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. In the German guidelines (currently being revised), 19 entities have been explicitly named so far, which are included in the present gene panel. These CMTs usually show the typical phenotype with progressive, distally accentuated weakness/atrophy of the lower limb muscles followed by the hand muscles, sensory disturbances and characteristic foot abnormalities. CMT may begin in early infancy with hypotonia, often with difficulty walking and skeletal deformities. Sensory signs are usually more mildly expressed than motor signs, with loss of tactile sensation, pain distally in the lower limbs with reduced deep tendon reflexes. Early onset and severe (respiratory) complications worsen the prognosis quoad vitam. The DNA-diagnostic yield is high but not known precisely, especially because of ethnic variation. Therefore, a negative DNA test result does not exclude CMT with certainty.
