Abstract excerpt

Myocardial involvement is frequently present in Xp21-linked muscular dystrophy, due to a lack of dystrophin in cardiac fibres. We describe a 41-yr-old man affected by dilated cardiomyopathy with sporadic episodes of myoglobinuria induced by effort and increased levels of serum creatine kinase. Very mild signs of skeletal myopathy were clinically evident. His mother was affected by an indefinite cardiopathy and...
