Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies (HMSN) are a group of neuropathies which are characterized by their impact upon both afferent and efferent neural communication.
They are more common than hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies.[1]
[edit] Types
In 1968, it was classified from groups I to VII:[2][3]
| Type | Name | Diseases Database | OMIM |
| I | Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 1 | 5815 | 118220, 118200 |
| II | Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 2 | 2343 | 118210, 600882 |
| III | Dejerine Sottas syndrome | 5821 | 145900 |
| IV | Refsum's disease | 11213 | 266500 |
| V | HMSN+hereditary spastic paraplegia | - | 600361 |
| VI | HMSN+hereditary optic atrophy | 32095 | 601152 |
| VII | HMSN+retinitis pigmentosa | 32094 | - |
HMSN is sometimes equated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.[4][5]
