Roussy-Lévy Syndrome: Pes Cavus, Tendon Areflexia, Amyotrophy, Gait Ataxia, and Upper Limb Tremor in a Patient with CMT Neuropathy.

Background:Roussy-Lévy syndrome (RLS) is characterized by postural hand tremor seen in patients with familial autosomal dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) neuropathy. Phenomenology Shown:This video demonstrates irregular, jerky bilateral kinetic, postural, rest tremor affecting the right > left hand, along with pes cavus and gait ataxia in a patient with CMT disease. Educational Value:Pes cavus, tendon areflexia, sensory ataxia, and upper limb tremor should prompt consideration of CMT neuropathy. Highlights:This video abstract depicts a bilateral hand tremor characteristic of Roussy-Lévy syndrome seen in patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease neuropathy. The significance of the abstract lies in the phenomenology and the physiology of the tremor seen in patients with genetically confirmed duplication of PMP22 gene.
