Abstract excerpt
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease caused by mutations of the myelin protein zero gene demonstrates considerable phenotypical variability. We describe a 45-year-old female with a peripheral neuropathy with demyelinating and axonal features, pes cavus and pupillary light-near dissociation. She was heterozygous for two mutations in the myelin protein zero gene (His81Tyr and Val113Phe), both present on the same allele. Our...
