RESUMEN
We describe the case of two brothers with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, dilated cardiomyopathy and disorders in the cardiac conduction. We review the literature in order to find physiological grounds for these associations. Despite the absence of consolidated data on this question, the genetic grounds could play some role here. In this sense, our cases contribute with the novelty that the disease affects two brothers. This has never been described before and could contribute, along with future observations, to clarify some etiopathogenic aspects of the disease.
