The publication presents the results of study and analysis of contribution made by recessive axonopathies, associated with mutations in the HINT1 gene, to the hereditary motor-sensory neuropathies structure in Russian patients. 1596 unrelated Russian families with NMSN were examined. The findings were that this form was one of the most frequent recessive neuropathies; it accounts for almost 2% of all HMSN cases and 9% of axonopathies cases.
