Management of CMT Disease in ČR
From the past till 1997 - medical care was provided
separately by various University Hospitals
(5 in Bohemia and 3 in Moravia )
1997 Medical Project for Diagnostic and
Treatment of CMT Disease
(was founded in the 2nd Medical School of Charles University,
Prague,Czech Republic)
1999 C-M-T Association was established
Hereditary neuropathies –
Charcot-Marie-Tooth
diseases
CMT – complex disease
Various disease aspects
required collaboration of :
Diagnostics
neurology, genetics, orthopedics
Therapy
rehabilitation, orthopedics, neurology
Prevention
genetics + social aspects (teachers)
Multidisciplinary Approach
No causative treatment
strategy must be
based on prevention and symptomatic care provided
by specialists :

Goals of Neurological Care.
A complex approach aiming to
 establish correct diagnosis
(distal weakness, muscle atrophies,decreased
reflexes)
 distinguish diseases ressembling CMT
( CIDP, lumbal spine stenosis , tethered cord)
 follow up investigations
Electrophysiology in CMT
Conduction studies – most important tool to
confirm neuropathy
CMT Type I (CMT 1) – demyelination and
reduced NCVs ( less than 38 m/s)
CMT Type II ( CMT 2) – predominantly axonal
disease – preserved or only midly reduced
NCVs
Electrophysiology-tests & results
CMT1A -CV, CN EMG, BR
– 105 pts
HNPP – CV, CN EMG,entrapments - 38 pts
CMTX – CV, CN EMG, BAEP,BR,ENG,
SEP – 22 pts
MPZ – CV, CN EMG, VEP, BAEP,SEP – 8 pts

 mutation search in known genes
 Genetic counselling (risk for further generation,
prenatal diagnostic )
 Linkage studies and gene-hunting in larger
families with unknown gene defect

What can be done for
C-M-T patients ??
• Rehabilitation
• Orthopedic surgery
• Medicament supporting therapy
Main Clinical Problems of CMT Disease
muscle weakness – footdrop, atrophies
foot deformities (cavus foot)
gait disturbances (steppage and slapping gait)
loss of balance
sensory disturbances
scoliosis
musculoskeletal pain
The Aim of Physiotherapy
maximazing strenght
gait improvement
insuring safety
injuries from falls
minimizing discomfort
low back pain,joint pain
protecting joint
foot and spine deform.
conserving energy
ergotherapy,ability to
work, orthotic devices
Approaches to Physiotherapy
functional assesment of motor functions
according to Vinci´s scale ( 7 stages )
establish a short and long term
programme
orthotic devices recommendations
C-M-T Rehabilitation Centre
Orthopedics
- foot deformity – pes cavus
- biomechanical deficit
- repeated ankle sprains
- tendon contractures and inflammations
- toenail deformities and ulceration
- secondary nerve entrapments
- scoliosis
Aims of Orthopedic Care
 prevention of structural deformities
 corrections of foot deformities
 improvement of balance
 improvement of skin changes
(foot ulcers )

and varus heel

Neurological therapy
 symptomatic farmacological treatment
( alpha lipoic acid, vitamins, creatin monohydrate,
gabapentin)
The Czech C-M-T Association
www.websiska.cz/C-M-T/
The Goals and Aims of
the Czech C-M-T Association
1. to connect CMT patients - meetings
2. informations about CMT for patients and
physicans
3. better colaboration between physicians and CMT
patients
4. improvement of relations to governamental
institutions (Ministry of Health Care, Ministry of Social
Events,Parliament)
5. to improve and promote relations to public
organizations - HC givers/payers, NGOs, M.
Media ( Health Insurance Company, Rehabilitation Centres and Spas )
