Abstract excerpt
Non-dystrophic myotonias include several entities with possible clinical overlap, i.e. myotonia congenita caused by CLCN1 gene mutations, as well as paramyotonia congenita and sodium channel myotonia caused by SCN4A gene mutations. Herein, we describe the clinical features of five relatives affected by clinical and neurophysiological myotonia, with an aspecific and mixed phenotype. Next-generation sequencing...
