Autosomal dominant distal myopathy not linked to the known distal myopathy loci
Neuromuscular Disorders, 1999The distal myopathies are clinically, pathologically and genetically heterogenous. Thus far, seven types of distal myopathy have been linked to four chromosome loci. We recently examined four affected members from three generations of an autosomal dominant distal myopathy kindred. A muscle biopsy was performed on the index case.

Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles
Neuromuscular Disorders, 1998Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder with preferential involvement of the anterior tibial muscle. Recently the gene was discovered to be mapped to chromosome 9, the same region as in familial inclusion body myopathy (rimmed vacuole myopathy sparing the quadriceps).

Distal myopathies are a group of genetic, primary muscle diseases. Patients develop progressive weakness and atrophy of the muscles of forearm, hands, lower leg, or feet. Currently, over 20 different forms, presenting a variable age of onset, clinical presentation, disease progression, muscle involvement, and histological findings, are known.

Distal myopathies are classified according to clinical, histopathological, and genetic patterns into the following: late adult onset type 1, or Welander myopathy, the first recognized distal myopathy with autosomal dominant inheritance and very recently linked to chromosome 2p; late adult onset type 2, or Markesbery-Griggs/Udd myopathy, autosomal ...

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1999
Among various previously described distal myopathies, several diseases have now been established as clinically and genetically distinct entities. The most representative diseases are dominantly inherited Welander distal myopathy and tibial muscular dystrophy, and the recessively inherited distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles and distal muscular ...

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2007
Advanced molecular genetic possibilities have made it possible to clarify and delineate an ever growing number of distinct new disease entities in the group of distal myopathies. These diseases share the clinical features of preferential muscle weakness in the feet and/or hands, and as they are genetic disorders that lead to progressive loss of muscle ...

The distal myopathies are a heterogeneous group of disorders that pose a challenge to both the clinician and geneticist. This article summarizes the findings of recent clinical, genetic and molecular studies and the current diagnostic approach to this group of patients.Publications over the past 5 years describe a number of new clinical phenotypes and ...

The distal myopathies are a rare and heterogeneous group of neuromuscular disorders. Patients present with weakness of the hands, distal lower extremities, or both. Age of onset varies from early childhood to late adulthood. Most of the disorders causing distal myopathic weakness are genetically based.

Distal myopathies are frequently encountered in the Nordic countries, and are now being increasingly recognized elsewhere. Three new descriptions of distal myopathy phenotypes have been published in the past year. At the same time there has been considerable progress in molecular genetics and in understanding the molecular pathophysiology underlying ...

Distal myopathies are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders characterized clinically by progressive muscular weakness and atrophy beginning in the hands or feet, and pathologically by myopathic changes in skeletal muscles. Five distinct distal myopathies are identified, among them four have been recently defined by their gene and causative ...
