Abstract

Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) is an inherited progressive peripheral neuropathy characterized by prominent muscle weakness and sensory loss. Typical presentation includes high medial arches and tibialis anterior muscle weakness, which results in foot drop and leads to an increased frequency of falls. For this reason, foot drop is frequently the target of intervention. Reliably quantifying severity of foot drop and tibialis anterior muscle weakness is difficult through observational gait analysis and strength testing.
