  • Title: Charcot-Marie-Tooth's disease with severe trophic and sensory disorders. Study of a case following along a half a century with anatomical studies.
    Author: Barraquer-Bordas L, Navarro C, Salisachs P.
    Journal: Acta Neurol Latinoam; 1981; 27(3-4):177-89. PubMed ID: 6965173.
    Abstract:
    Plantar ulcers of neurological origin are known to be associated with several disorders, some of which may be familial. We present the case report together with the clinical and post-mortem data of a patient with peroneal muscular atrophy of the Charcot-Marie-Tooth type and plantar ulcers as a prominent feature. At least three other members of her family had Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. The family pedigree is included. The discussion stresses the difference between patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with associated manifestations, bony destruction of the feet and plantar ulcers and patients with hereditary motor and hereditary sensory radicular neuropathies.
