Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy and Charcot–Marie–Tooth type 1A: Co-existence of two rare neuromuscular genetic diseases in the same patient

[Coincidence of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type 1A and limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A]

A rare case of two neuromuscular disorders in a 29-year-old female is presented: autosomal dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type 1A (HMSN1A) due to PMP22 duplication and autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) produced by CAPN3 common mutation c.550delA and novel c.575C>G (p.Thr192Ser).Walking difficulties appeared in 27 years, the patient had signs of both disorders, more of LGMD, but was not disabled. HMSN1A was inherited from her father whose disease was not recognized earlier.
