A case of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type III with a decrease in unmyelinated fibers

We report a 3-year-old girl with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type III with a decrease in unmyelinated fibers. There have been few reports of such cases. The present findings suggest the possibility that the primary lesion in this disease is in the axons. We consider that more attention should be paid to the changes in unmyelinated fibers and axons in further studies on this disease.
