  • Title: [Congestive cardiomyopathy and pyruvate elevation in a case of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease].
    Author: Martin-Du Pan RC, Juge C, Perrenoud JJ.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1984 May 05; 114(18):625-9. PubMed ID: 6539500.
    Abstract:
    The case is reported of a patient with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and congestive cardiomyopathy. This is an exceptional association and suggests there could be transitional forms between Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and Friedreich ataxia, which is frequently associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. A disorder of pyruvate metabolism observed in our patient could explain both the neurologic and cardiac symptoms.
