NEMALINE MYOPATHY 8; NEM8
Description
Nemaline myopathy-8 is a severe autosomal recessive muscle disorder characterized by fetal akinesia or hypokinesia, followed by contractures, fractures, respiratory failure, and swallowing difficulties apparent at birth. Most patients die in infancy. Skeletal muscle biopsy shows numerous small nemaline bodies, often with no normal myofibrils (summary by Ravenscroft et al., 2013).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of nemaline myopathy, see NEM3 (OMIM ).
Most common symptoms of NEMALINE MYOPATHY 8; NEM8
- Flexion contracture
- Dysphagia
- Myopathy
- Respiratory failure
- Facial palsy

SEVERE CONGENITAL NEMALINE MYOPATHY
Description
Severe congenital nemaline myopathy is a severe form of nemaline myopathy (NM; see this term) characterized by severe hypotonia with little spontaneous movement in neonates.
Most common symptoms of SEVERE CONGENITAL NEMALINE MYOPATHY
- Low-set ears
- Flexion contracture
- Motor delay
- Skeletal muscle atrophy
- Dysphagia
