초록
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder and one of the most common muscular dystrophies affecting adults. Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, a common hereditary neuropathy, is characterized by atrophy of the distal limbs and peripheral nerve abnormalities. The authors report a rare case involving a 24-yearold female who was diagnosed simultaneously with both DM1 and CMT1A based on the results of a nerve conduction study (NCS). The patient, who had previously been diagnosed with DM1, was admitted for lower extremity pain. Her electrodiagnostic examination continued to reveal severe sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathy, and a genetic study was performed to confirm whether she had other hereditary neuropathies, except DM1, that suggested CMT1A, the most common phenotype of CMT. Severe abnormalities in an NCS in a DM1 patient may suggest the incidental coexistence of hereditary neuropathies, and further evaluations, such as genetic studies, should be performed for proper diagnosis.
Abstract
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder and one of the most common muscular dystrophies affecting adults. Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, a common hereditary neuropathy, is characterized by atrophy of the distal limbs and peripheral nerve abnormalities. The authors report a rare case involving a 24-yearold female who was diagnosed simultaneously with both DM1 and CMT1A based on the results of a nerve conduction study (NCS). The patient, who had previously been diagnosed with DM1, was admitted for lower extremity pain. Her electrodiagnostic examination continued to reveal severe sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathy, and a genetic study was performed to confirm whether she had other hereditary neuropathies, except DM1, that suggested CMT1A, the most common phenotype of CMT. Severe abnormalities in an NCS in a DM1 patient may suggest the incidental coexistence of hereditary neuropathies, and further evaluations, such as genetic studies, should be performed for proper diagnosis.
