Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

Muscle and Nerve, 2006
AbstractFacioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a dominantly inherited disorder with an initially restricted pattern of weakness. Early involvement of the facial and scapular stabilizer muscles results in a distinctive clinical presentation. Progression is descending, with subsequent involvement of either the distal anterior leg or hip‐girdle ...

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

Ryoikibetsu shokogun shirizu, 2001
Abstract The defining clinical features include the onset of weakness of the facial or shoulder girdle muscles, leading eventually to the wasting of these muscles (Fig. 8.1). Significant facial weakness is evident in more than half of all affected FSHD patients.

Sleep quality in Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2007
To evaluate the subjective sleep quality, the prevalence of daytime sleepiness and the risk of sleep-related upper airways obstruction in patients with genetically proven Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). FSHD is an autosomal dominant myopathy, characterized by an early involvement of facial and scapular muscles with eventual spreading to ...

SCAPULOTHORACIC FUSION FOR FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2005
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy causes winging of the scapula and weakness and discomfort of the shoulder. Surgical stabilization of the scapula to the posterior part of the chest wall permits shoulder abduction and flexion by the deltoid muscle.

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1999
A decade's progress in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy genetics has been marked by the discovery of novel genetic phenomena such as crossover of subtelomeric DNA between chromosomes 4 and 10 in normal individuals and by the recognition that the facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy deletion-mutation may cause a position variegation effect on ...
