Autosomal Recessive Limb-girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type 2q
Description
Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Q (LGMD2Q) is a form of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy characterized by proximal muscle weakness presenting in early childhood (with occasional falls and difficulties in climbing stairs) and a progressive course resulting in loss of ambulation in early adulthood. Muscle atrophy and multiple contractures have also been reported in rare cases.
