Cranial nerve involvement has been described in association with various CMT\u2010genes mutations, such as <jats:italic>GDAP1<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>TRPV4<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>MFN2<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>MTMR2<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>EGR2<\/jats:italic>. Compound heterozygous mutations in the <jats:italic>TRIM2<\/jats:italic> gene, encoding an E3 ubiquitin ligase, were previously identified in two patients with early\u2010onset axonal CMT (CMT2). One of them also had bilateral vocal cord paralysis. The aim of this study is to further delineate the phenotypic and molecular genetic features of TRIM2\u2010related CMT. We studied clinical, genetic and neurophysiological aspects of two unrelated CMT2 patients. Genetic analysis was performed by next generation sequencing of a multigene CMT panel. Patients presented with congenital hypotonia and bilateral clubfoot, delayed motor milestones, and severely progressive axonal neuropathy. Interestingly, along with vocal cord paralysis, they exhibited clinical features secondary to the involvement of several other cranial nerves, such as facial weakness, dysphagia, dyspnoea and acoustic impairment. Genetic analysis revealed two novel <jats:italic>TRIM2<\/jats:italic> mutations in each patient. Our results expand the genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of <jats:italic>TRIM2<\/jats:italic> deficiency showing that cranial nerves involvement is a core feature in this CMT2\u2010subtype. Its finding should prompt physicians to suspect <jats:italic>TRIM2<\/jats:italic> neuropathy. Conversely, patients carrying <jats:italic>TRIM2<\/jats:italic> variants should be carefully evaluated for the presence of cranial nerve dysfunction in order to prevent and manage its impact on auditory and respiratory function and nutrition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jns.12410","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,28]],"date-time":"2020-08-28T11:59:32Z","timestamp":1598615972000},"page":"429-432","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Expanding
