[3 cases of scapulo-peroneal neurogenic amyotrophy (Dawidenkow's syndrome). Nosological situation in relation to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease].

Three cases of neuropathic scapulo-peroneal syndrome are reported. One case was of the hypertrophic type, two were of the neuronal type. The nosological situation of the Dawidenkow syndrome is discussed. Cases of scapulo-peroneal amyotrophy with peripheral neuropathy should be regarded as a topographical variety of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
