Muscular involvement of two cases of Cha-rcot-Marie-Tooth disease were studied bioche-mically and histopathologically. Case 1, K.Y. 20 year-old male, had had severe fatigue and loss of strength on lower extremities over one year. Atrophies of lower third of thigh muscles and L. gastrocunemius muscles were noted. Slight sensory involvement was proved on right peroneal region. Marked decrease of activity of creatine phosphokinase and aldola-se, low concentration of intracellular potassium and decrease of intracellular water were notedon biopsied muscles from gastrocunemius mu-scle, but were not proved in biopsied femoral quadriceps muscle spaci men. However, histo-pathologic studies showed myopathic picture in both muscles.

Case 2 T. Y. 30 year-old female with the complaints of lumbago and gradual increase of difficulty of gait over four years period. Muscle atrophies are noted on lower third of thighs and gastrocunemii and anterior tibialmuscles. Biochemical and histological changes were essentially the same as in case 1. Serum CPK and aldolase elevated in both cases and EMG showed myopathic changes associated with the pattern of neurogenic atrophy. Our results suggested that the major parts of the muscular changes on this disease, which had been thought as neurogenic atrophy, were primarily myopathy.
