Laing early-onset distal myopathy in a Belgian family.

Acta neurologica Belgica - 1 Dec 2014

Abstract excerpt

We report the first Belgian family with Laing early-onset distal myopathy (MPD1). The proposita started limping at age 7. Later, there was severe weakness of proximal and distal muscles, including neck flexors. Her daughter developed foot drop at age 4. Progressive weakness of distal limb extensor muscles and mild weakness of the neck flexor and proximal muscles were noted. In both patients, CK and nerve...
