CMT Type 2 represents axonal forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease that are dominantly inherited and make up about one-third of all dominant CMT cases. Patients with Type 2 have a wider age range for onset of the disorder and more variation in degree of disability. (More about CMT Type 2: CMT_Type_2_Causes_Symptoms.pdf)

2024年6月22日 · CMT2: CMT2 represents 15% to 30% of cases and is characterized by axonal pathology, an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, onset typically in the second or third decade, distal motor weakness, and normal or slightly slowed NCVs (>40 m/s).

Dominant mutations in Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) cause CMT2A2. Mitofusin 2 is localized in the outer membrane of mitochondria and is required for their normal fusion (Chen et al., 2003). This affects their function, as mitochondria isolated from cultured fibroblasts of CMT2A2 patients generate ATP less efficiently than those from normals.

CMT2 results from abnormalities in the axon of the peripheral nerve cell, rather than the myelin sheath, and is less common than CMT1. This autosomal dominant disorder has more than a dozen subtypes (some of which have their own variants), with each subtype being associated with mutations in a specific gene.

CMT2 is defined by the neurophysiological features of chronic axonal neuropathy, with nerve biopsy findings of chronic axonal atrophy and regeneration, and possibly rudimental onion bulbs, in the clinical setting of a her- editary syndrome of peroneal muscular atrophy [2,22].

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is an inherited peripheral nerve disorder with a wide range of clinical presentations, posing diagnostic challenges. This case report describes the management of CMT in a 24-year-old male, providing insights into the condition's natural history and the importance of early recognition.

What is Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 (CMT2)? CMT type 2 (CMT2) is a subtype of CMT that is similar to CMT1 but is less common. CMT2 is typically inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern but in some cases can be inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. 4,5,6 CMT2 represents 12% to 36% of all CMT cases. 7. What are the symptoms of CMT2?
