Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT) - MedicineNet
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is composed of types of inherited neurological disorders that affect motor and sensory peripheral nerves (neuropathy), resulting in weakness in the musculature; the disease may get progressively worse over time. It is one of the most common (1 in 2,500 people) inherited neurological disorders.
