A young male presented to our hospital with a long standing history of spastic paraparesis with no cerebellar or sensory ataxia. He had no sensory level or sphencteric disturbances. There is no similar family history. He had normal magnetic resonance imaging of the cervical and dorsal regions. Electrophysiologic studies including electromyography and nerve conduction were consistent with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 5. This case is being reported for its rarity.
