Neurogenic scapuloperoneal syndrome in childhood.

Two brothers presented with a slowly progressive scapuloperoneal syndrome starting in early childhood. Initially there were myopathic EMG changes, but these changed to those of denervation. Neuromuscular biopsies at an interval of five years confirmed the neurogenic character of the muscle atrophy.

Scapuloperoneal syndrome with cardiomyopathy: report of a family with autosomal dominant inheritance and unusual features.

Four members of a family with scapuloperoneal syndrome were examined and investigated. The pattern of inheritance was autosomal dominant and the myopathic basis of the muscle atrophy was established by histological studies of muscle and spinal cord. The family illustrates an unusual combination of features which appear to be distinct from those of other families with myopathic scapuloperoneal s...

Linkage of scapuloperoneal spinal muscular atrophy to chromosome 12q24.1-q24.31.

Scapuloperoneal (SP) syndromes are heterogeneous neuromuscular disorders which are characterized by weakness in the distribution of shoulder girdle and peroneal muscles. SP syndromes can resemble facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSH) due to scapular weakness or Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) due to atrophy of peroneal muscles. Both neurogenic and myopathic SP syndromes have been descr...

Phenotypic variability of TRPV4 related neuropathies

Mutations in the transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) gene have been associated with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias and peripheral nervous system syndromes (PNSS). PNSS include Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) type 2C, congenital spinal muscular atrophy and arthrogryposis and scapuloperoneal spinal muscular atrophy. We report the clinical, electrophysiological and muscle bi...

[History of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSN-P)].

We established a new disease autosomal dominant hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSNP) in 1997, in Okinawa, Japan. This disease is characterized by proximal dominant neurogenic atrophy with fasciculations, painful muscle cramp, obvious sensory nerve involvement, areflexia, high incidence of elevated creatine kinase levels, hyperlipidemia and hyperglyc...
