Summary
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), one of the most common inherited neurological disorders, is named after the three physicians who first identified it in 1886, i.e., Jean-Martin Charcot and Pierre Marie in Paris, France; and Howard Henry Tooth in Cambridge, UK. CMT, also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN) or peroneal muscular atrophy, comprises a group of genetically heterogeneous disorders characterized by abnormal myelination and/or axonal degeneration of peripheral nerves [1, 2].
