dc.description.abstractThis case presents a rare co-occurrence of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 (CMT2) and schwannoma, shedding light on the intricate relationship between two neurogenic disorders. CMT is a hereditary sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy while schwannoma is a benign encapsulated tumor involving Schwann cells. The co-occurrence has been previously described in 2 patients in a family with CMT type 1A. Our case reports the first documented instance of the co-occurrence of bilateral hypoglossal schwannoma in CMT2.en_US
