Charcot-Marie-Tooth USMLE Mnemonic

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a group of progressive hereditary nerve disorders associated with defective production of proteins in peripheral nerves or myelin. The disease is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion, and the most common mutation is caused by a duplication of the gene, PMP22. Clinical findings to know about include sensory and motor deficits, and foot deformities including hammer toe, pes cavus (high-arched foot), pes planus (flat foot), and foot drop. Nerve damage and resulting muscle atrophy can lead to an “inverted bottle” or “stork leg” appearance of the lower extremities seen in Charcot-Marie-Tooth patients.

This channel is actually saving me so much time, effort and tears in trying to learn all this. Amazing. On behalf of every medic student who watches this / usual visual learning - THANK YOU. You legit deserve the nobel prize for teaching or something.

[@matthewt9654]

You guys make such great content. Please keep it up! Way more focused and to the point than sketchy path!

[@zed3063]

Sketchy can’t continue charging extortionate amounts while there are top quality videos like this for free.

[@beverlypra3224]

Please do more of these: they are simply brilliant!

[@bi0lizard1]

You MUST do more and cover more disorders. Don’t steer completely away from more common endocrine disorders. EX: Hasimotos Thyroiditis, Even refreshers on things like diabetes would be helpful. Such a memorable way. Very helpful TY

While CMT1 is the most common form of CMT and is indeed caused by an AD mutation of PMP2, other types of CMT follow a different pattern of inheritance: AR (Cx32) / linked to the X chromosome, etc.
Amazing video, just wanted to clear that out. Thank you so much!

Great video

[@heartcryOD]

CMT is not always autosomal dominant! All Type 4 instances of CMT are inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. CMT type 3 is usually recessive, as well. Please do not misinform! Thank you for disseminating about CMT, but please update your info!

[@rubaiatsanjidhossain9855]

[@gabriellafrancesca3453]

HAHAHA I'm back a year later for step 2 and completely forgot I ever saw this till I saw my comment - idk what it is about CMT but my brain just rejects it completely

Wow that's awesome 👍

[@nour5459]

Oh man😂you are amazing :3 keep up tye good work❤

[@tracyspampinato_staff-wake4523]

For the most part it is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Most types are, but be mindful that there are recessive subtypes, and de novo types. I have CMT 1A. We'd say it "runs" in the family, but honestly, the most we can do is wobble!! LOL

[@carolphiri3403]

You are the best✌️😂❤️

[@mar7956]

Ammmmmmmazing!

The mnemonic is too detailed
Simpley CMT IS
A HERDITARY MIXED PERPHIRAL SENSORY AND MOTOR POLY NEUROPATHY
INVERTED CHAMBAIN BOTTOL LEG SHAPE
PERPHRAL MUSCLE WEAKNESS
FOOT DROP, PES CAPHES
REFLEXES ARE ABSENT AND
THEY LOSS TOUCH AND PAIN SENSATION
HIGH STEPAGE GAIT
THEY LOSS PAIN AND

[@akthamadams7989]

I have subscribed to this but please get to the point without so much humor. This video could be a lot shorter

The Great Heisenberg are you kidding? Humor literally kept me watching it

[@conseq6840]
