Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease - Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
Chronic progressive muscular atrophy was reported in 1886 by JM Charcot and P. Marie (1853-1940) in France, followed in the same year by HH Tooth (1856-1926) in England. There are dominant genetic types, sex-linked recessive genetic types, and sporadic cases. Several genetic abnormalities in myelin sheath formation-related proteins have been identified as the cause. Before the age of 20, weakness and atrophy occur primarily in the extensor muscles of the distal part of the lower limbs, such as the toes and feet, which then spreads to the proximal and distal parts of the upper limbs, and sensory loss also occurs.
