Clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of women with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

We identified two subgroups of women with CMTX1 who were over 48 years of age. Additionally, we have demonstrated that women with CMTX can exhibit an atypical clinical presentation, which may result in misdiagnosis. Therefore, in women presenting with chronic neuropathy, the presence of clinical asymmetry, heterogeneous MNCV, and/or motor CB should raise suspicion for X-linked CMT, particularly CMTX1, and be included in the differential diagnosis.
