Abstract excerpt

To elucidate the clinical characteristics of aged patients with Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), 4 patients with this disease who were over 50 years were examined. The ages at onset in all patients were later than 30 years. All were proven to have a deletion around exons 45-55 of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) gene. Two patients became wheelchair bound in their 40s or beyond, while the other 2 (aged 73 and...
