AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE TYPE 2Z
Alternate names
AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE TYPE 2Z Is also known as autosomal dominant charcot-marie-tooth disease type 2 due to morc2 mutation, cmt2z, charcot-marie-tooth disease, axonal, autosomal dominant, type 2z, charcot-marie-tooth neuropathy, type 2z
Description
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2Z (CMT2Z) is an autosomal dominant peripheral neuropathy characterized by onset, usually in the first decade, of distal lower limb muscle weakness and sensory impairment. The disorder is progressive, and affected individuals tend to develop upper limb and proximal muscle involvement in an asymmetric pattern, resulting in severe disability late in adulthood (summary by Sevilla et al., 2016).For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of axonal CMT, see CMT2A1 (OMIM ).
Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT CHARCOT-MARIE-TOOTH DISEASE TYPE 2Z
- Global developmental delay
- Generalized hypotonia
- Hearing impairment
- Scoliosis
- Muscle weakness
