A new phenotype of dysferlinopathy with congenital onset
We report two patients with a new phenotype of dysferlinopathy presenting as congenital muscular disease. Both patients showed weakness in proximal lower limbs and neck flexor muscles at birth. The presence of normal CK levels during the first years should be noted.

The Role of Repeat Skeletal Muscle Biopsy: Indications, Yield and Outcomes
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Muscle biopsy performed to investigate weakness and/or pain may be nondiagnostic and prompt repeat biopsy. We determined the indications and yield of rebiopsy. Methods Patients who underwent > 1 muscle biopsy (South Australia, 2000–2023) were identified.

Abstract Background and Purpose Limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy R2 (LGMD R2) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by progressive weakness and wasting of proximal muscles. LGMD R2 is caused by the loss of function of dysferlin, a transmembrane protein crucial for plasma membrane repair in skeletal muscles.

Non-invasive protein analysis in the first dysferlinopathy Croatian families
Mutations in human dysferlin (DYSF) gene cause both limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi myopathy (MM), also named dysferlinopathy.

Two cases with dysferlinopathy
Dysferlinopathy includes a rare spectrum of muscle disease characterized by two main phenotypes: Miyoshi myopathy(MM) and Limb Girdle muscular dystrophy(LGMD 2B) and results from a mutation of the gene that codes dysferline protein (DYSF gene, 2p13). In this report, we present 2 cases with dysferlinopathy whose diagnosis were confirmed by clinical and ...

Phenotypic Drug Screening for Dysferlinopathy Using Patient‐Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Dysferlinopathy is a progressive muscle disorder that includes limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B and Miyoshi myopathy (MM). It is caused by mutations in the dysferlin (DYSF) gene, whose function is to reseal the muscular membrane.
