MEGACONIAL CONGENITAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY

Alternate names

MEGACONIAL CONGENITAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY Is also known as muscular dystrophy, congenital, with mitochondrial structural abnormalities, congenital megaconial myopathy, congenital muscular dystrophy due to phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis defect, congenital muscular dystrophy with mitochondrial structural abnormaliti

Description

Megaconial-type congenital muscular dystrophy is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by early-onset muscle wasting and mental retardation. Some patients develop fatal cardiomyopathy. Muscle biopsy shows peculiar enlarged mitochondria that are prevalent toward the periphery of the fibers but are sparse in the center (summary by Mitsuhashi et al., 2011).

Most common symptoms of MEGACONIAL CONGENITAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Microcephaly

PROXIMAL MYOPATHY WITH FOCAL DEPLETION OF MITOCHONDRIA

Most common symptoms of PROXIMAL MYOPATHY WITH FOCAL DEPLETION OF MITOCHONDRIA

  • Myopathy
  • Elevated serum creatine phosphokinase
  • Proximal muscle weakness
  • Myalgia
  • Exercise-induced myalgia
