Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is hereditary neuropathy which involves mainly ant. tibial and peroneal nerve of the leg and is transmitted as autosomal dominant trait. Clinical symptoms begin to occur in the second decade and manifested as disturbance of gait, muscular atrophy of the legs and feet, pes cavus, talipes equinovarus and hammer toe. Muscles of the hands may be involved, but cranial nerve is spared.
