摘要: The objective of this study is to assess the genetic distribution Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease in Campania, a region Southern Italy. We analyzed cohort 197 index cases and reported type frequency mutations for whole CMT population each electrophysiological group (CMT1, CMT2, hereditary neuropathy with susceptibility pressure palsies [HNPP]) familial isolated cases. Genetic diagnosis was achieved 148 patients (75.1%) higher success rate HNPP CMT1 than CMT2. Only four genes (PMP22, GJB1, MPZ, GDAP1) accounted 92% all genetically confirmed In CMT1, PMP22 duplication most common mutation while second gene order MPZ SH3TC2 GJB1 frequent mutated GDAP1 almost 3/4 defined CMT2 patients. first HNPP, majority harbored deletion. novelty our data relatively high demyelinating axonal forms, respectively. These epidemiological can help panel design patients' population.
