Abstract excerpt

Welander distal myopathy (WDM) is an autosomal dominant myopathy with late-adult onset characterized by slow progression of distal muscle weakness. The disorder is considered a model disease for hereditary distal myopathies and is almost only seen in Sweden and some parts of Finland. A genomewide screening has been performed in initially two Swedish families with 400 highly polymorphic microsatellite markers. We...
