What it is

A rare hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy disorder characterized by the typical CMT phenotype (slowly progressive distal muscle atrophy and weakness in upper and lower limbs, distal sensory loss in extremities, reduced or absent deep tendon reflexes and foot deformities) with nerve biopsy demonstrating demyelinating and axonal changes and nerve conduction velocities varying from the demyelinating to axonal range.

Prevalence figures describe populations, not individuals, and are often estimates from a single study. Where the figure is an incidence or a birth prevalence, it says so.

ICD-10 codes

ICD-10 has no distinct code for most rare diseases, so many are filed under the nearest available one. A shared code identifies the group, not this disease — the ORPHAcode above is what identifies it.

Reached through the ICD-10 categories this disease is filed under, so these describe the broader group rather than this disease specifically.
