Congenital myopathy with cytoplasmic bodies.
Since early infancy, a 15-year-old girl had suffered from an apparently static neuromuscular disorder that chiefly afflicted her proximal muscles but did not spare her distal ones. Her CPK values had repeatedly been mildly elevated and her electromyogram had been considered "myopathic". There were no similar neuromuscular disorders in the family. Quadriceps muscle biopsy showed a type I myofibe...
متن کاملAerobic Training in Patients with Congenital Myopathy
INTRODUCTION Congenital myopathies (CM) often affect contractile proteins of the sarcomere, which could render patients susceptible to exercise-induced muscle damage. We investigated if exercise is safe and beneficial in patients with CM. METHODS Patients exercised on a stationary bike for 30 minutes, three times weekly, for 10 weeks at 70% of their maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Creatine ki...
متن کاملBenign congenital myopathy with myasthenic features.
It has been increasingly apparent in recent years that in addition to cases which fall into recognizable categories of muscle disease, a number of less common disorders occur from time to time which do not correspond to the accepted descriptions. Some of these appear to be metabolic in origin and can be elucidated, at least in part, by modern methods of investigation (McArdle, 1951) while other...
متن کاملCongenital fibre type disproportion myopathy
Nine children with congenital fibre type disproportion (CFTD) are described. Their muscle biopsies contained type 1 fibres which were smaller than the largest type 2 fibres by at least 13.5%. Attention is drawn to the variable natural history of this disorder which generally carries a good prognosis but may sometimes be associated with fatal respiratory problems. For important therapeutic, gene...
متن کاملComparison of Clinical Characteristics Between Congenital Fiber Type Disproportion Myopathy and Congenital Myopathy with Type 1 Fiber Predominance
Congenital myopathies are clinical and genetic heterogeneous disorders characterized by skeletal muscle weakness and specific structural changes in muscle fiber. Congenital myopathy with fiber type disproportion (CFTD) is an established disorder of congenital myopathy. CFTD is characterized by non-progressive childhood neuromuscular disorders with a relatively good prognosis and type 1 fiber pr...
