Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical features and genetic basis for a child featuring elevated creatine kinase (CK). METHODS: Next-generation sequencing (muscular dystrophy related gene panel) was carried out for the proband. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing of the child and his parents. RESULTS: The child was found to harbor compound heterozygous variants of the FKTN gene, including a missense...
