Miyoshi myopathy, LGMD2B and DMAT are primary dysferlinopathies that belong to a group of muscular dystrophies inherited in an autosomal recessive mode. Additional presentations range from isolated hyperCKemia to severe functional disability. LGMD2B involves predominantly the proximal muscles of the lower limbs whereas in Miyoshi myopathy the muscles involved are those of the posterior muscle compartment of the...
Tetra-amelia is a rare malformation that may be associated with other anomalies and is usually inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. We describe a fetus, born to a nonconsanguineous couple, with tetra-amelia, bilateral cleft lip and palate and bilateral lung agenesis, without other anomalies.
