Mutations in the ganglioside-induced differentiation-associated protein 1 (GDAP1) gene may cause severe early-onset inherited neuropathies. Here, the authors report a clinical and neurophysiological follow-up of a Pakistani child with a very early-onset neuropathy carrying a novel homozygous mutation in the GDAP1gene. They discuss the relationship between the several forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease presenting in the first months of life and focus on the literature of GDAP1-associated early-onset neuropathy. This case further expands on the clinical spectrum and the genetic heterogeneity of early-onset inherited neuropathy due to GDAP1 gene mutations.
