abstract: We report on, 1 36-year-old man of Swedish descent who had teenage onset of a progressive disorder with features of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and cerebellar ataxia. Cognition was normal. The polyneuropathy was of axonal type. Magnetic resonance imaging of his brain showed cerebellar atrophy.
