The Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophies

1 Dec 2019

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: As a group, the limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) are the fourth most prevalent genetic muscle disease, yet they are still not well known or understood. This article defines and describes LGMDs, delineates a diagnostic strategy, and discusses treatment of the LGMDs. RECENT FINDINGS: In 2018, the definition of the LGMDs was further refined, and a new nomenclature was proposed. Diagnosis...
