Naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease: two autosomal dominant disorders segregating in a family.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A family is described in which 16 individuals in 3 generations have Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. At least 6 family members also have the naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome. In addition, 1 subject with both disorders has 2 young daughters with the naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.

Familial jaw cysts in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a relatively benign inherited neurological disorder (Bell, 1935). Clearly affected subjects have slowly progressive weakness and atrophy of certain distal muscle groups; within an affected family others who carry the gene may show only minor or insignificant clinical abnormalities, such as pes cavus, slight weakness of foot dorsi-flexion, or absence of the Achille...
متن کاملAutosomal dominant burning feet syndrome.
Familial burning feet syndrome inherited as an autosomal dominant trait has been described in only one family. Due to an associated sensory neuropathy the autosomal dominant burning feet syndrome was suggested to represent a variant form of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type I (HSAN I). Clinical, histopathological, and molecular genetic studies were performed in a large German kin...

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is the most common hereditary neuropathy of the peripheral nervous system with a wide range of severity and age of onset. CMT patients share similar phenotypes which make it often impossible to identify the disease types based on clinical presentation and electrophysiological studies alone. In recent years, novel genetic diagnostic approaches such as whole exom...
متن کاملA unique point mutation in the PMP22 gene is associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and deafness.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) with deafness is clinically distinct among the genetically heterogeneous group of CMT disorders. Molecular studies in a large family with autosomal dominant CMT and deafness have not been reported. The present molecular study involves a family with progressive features of CMT and deafness, originally reported by Kousseff et al. Genetic analysis of 70 individual...
متن کاملCharcot-Marie-Tooth 1A Concurrent with Schwannomas of the Spinal Cord and Median Nerve
We identified Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A) in a family with schwannomas in the spinal cord and median nerve. The CMT1A in this family showed an autosomal dominant pattern, like other CMT patients with PMP22 duplication, and the family also indicated a possible genetic predisposition to schwannomas by 'mother-to-son' transmission. CMT1A is mainly caused by duplication of chromosom...
