ON MYOTONIA

Myotonia fluctuans.

Autosomal-dominantly inherited nondystrophic myotonic disorders are an interesting group of muscle diseases that provide considerable opportunity for future molecular genetic studies to identify the genes responsible for specific membrane functions. A family with such a myotonic disorder is described with features that are distinctly different from myotonia congenita and paramyotonia congenita....

Today, we have heard about several rare diseases and I am about to add another to the pile. This seems to me entirely appropriate to this occasion. Malcolm Campbell, as has been said, was a keen student of natural history. He took a special delight in the recognition of an unusual condition. I should like to add my tribute to his memorial.
