Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) syndrome is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of neuropathies affecting both peripheral motor and sensory nerves. Progressive sensorineural hearing loss, vestibular abnormalities, and dysfunction of other cranial nerves have been described. This is the second case report of otopathology in a patient with CMT syndrome. Molecular genetic testing of DNA obtained at autopsy revealed a missense variant in the MPZ gene (p.Thr65Ala), pathogenic for an autosomal-dominant form of CMT1B. The temporal bones were also prepared for light microscopy by hematoxylin and eosin and Gömöri trichome stains, and immunostaining for anti-myelin protein zero. Pathology was consistent with a myelinopathy of the auditory, vestibular, and facial nerves bilaterally. The pathophysiology of cranial nerve dysfunction in CMT is unknown. Findings in the current case suggested, at least in cranial nerves 7 and 8, that a myelinopathy may be causative.
