AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE INTERMEDIATE CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE TYPE C Is also known as ri-cmt type c, charcot-marie-tooth neuropathy, recessive intermediate c, ri-cmtc

Description

Autosomal recessive intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type C is a rare subtype of autosomal recessive intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease characterized by childhood to adulthood-onset of progressive, moderate to severe, predominantly distal, mostly lower limb muscle weakness and atrophy, foot deformities (including pes cavus and hammer toes), absent deep tendon reflexes and distal sensory loss associated with decreased motor and sensory nerve conduction velocities and features of both demyelinating and axonal neuropathy on sural nerve biopsy.

  • Muscle weakness
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Skeletal muscle atrophy
  • Areflexia
  • Elevated serum creatine phosphokinase

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE LOWER MOTOR NEURON DISEASE WITH CHILDHOOD ONSET

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE LOWER MOTOR NEURON DISEASE WITH CHILDHOOD ONSET Is also known as dsma4, distal spinal muscular atrophy type 4, autosomal recessive distal spinal muscular atrophy type 4

Description

Autosomal recessive lower motor neuron disease with childhood onset is a rare, genetic, neuromuscular disease characterized by proximal muscle weakness with an early involvement of foot and hand muscles following normal motor development in early childhood, a rapidly progressive disease course leading to generalized areflexic tetraplegia with contractures, severe scoliosis, hyperlordosis, and progressive respiratory insufficiency leading to assisted ventilation. Cranial nerve functions are normal and tongue wasting and fasciculations are absent. Milder phenotype with a moderate generalized weakness and slower disease progress was reported.

Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE LOWER MOTOR NEURON DISEASE WITH CHILDHOOD ONSET

  • Scoliosis
  • Muscle weakness
  • Flexion contracture
  • Skeletal muscle atrophy
  • Talipes equinovarus
