Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease associated with hip dysplasia: a case report.
A 31-year-old woman with a known history of hip dysplasia was found to have Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease following abnormal conduction studies done at the time of surgery. Physical examination in this patient was otherwise normal, and the diagnosis of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease had not been previously considered. This report demonstrates the importance of keeping in mind the association between hip dysplasia and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
