Combined Lumbar-Sacral Plexus Block in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy for Hip Fracture Surgery: A Case Report [PDF]
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a muscular dystrophy that can affect individuals of all age groups. Its prevalence is reported to be 0.4-1 in 10,000 people. Because of the low occurrence of FSHD, anaesthetic management is primarily based

Co-Occurrence of Myasthenia Gravis and Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy: A Case Series and Review of Literature. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) and Myasthenia Gravis (MG) are well‐known rare neuromuscular diseases of respectively genetic and acquired origin. Among muscular dystrophies, the co‐occurrence of MG with FSHD is the most common, representing a non‐negligible “double trouble”.

Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy [PDF]
This article describes the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, molecular pathogenesis, and treatment of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD).FSHD comprises two genetically distinct types that converge on a common downstream pathway of the expression of the toxic protein DUX4.

Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy [PDF]
In recent years, we have seen remarkable progress in our understanding of the disease mechanism underlying facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of our current understanding of the disease mechanism and to discuss the observations supporting the possibility of a developmental ...

Early onset facioscapulohumeral dystrophy - a systematic review using individual patient data [PDF]
Infantile or early onset is estimated to occur in around 10% of all facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) patients. Although small series of early onset FSHD patients have been reported, comprehensive data on the clinical phenotype is missing.
