[Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and bilateral vitritis].

CASE REPORT: We describe a patient diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, with a 4 months history of bilateral decreased visual acuity and floaters. On examination, he had severe bilateral vitreous opacity and sectoral diffuse vascular sheathing. It could not be linked to some underlying aetiology and did not respond to oral steroids.

CONCLUSIONS

Publications relating to ocular findings in patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease exclude bilateral vitritis. In this case we were unable to test the association with another disease as the cause of vitritis.
