MYOPATHY, MYOFIBRILLAR, 8; MFM8

Description

Myofibrillar myopathy-8 is an autosomal recessive myopathy characterized by childhood onset of slowly progressive proximal muscle weakness and atrophy resulting in increased falls, gait problems, and difficulty running or climbing stairs. Upper and lower limbs are affected, and some individuals develop distal muscle weakness and atrophy. Ambulation is generally preserved, and patients do not have significant respiratory compromise. Muscle biopsy shows a mix of myopathic features, including myofibrillar inclusions and sarcomeric disorganization (summary by O'Grady et al., 2016).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of myofibrillar myopathy, see MFM1 (OMIM ).

Most common symptoms of MYOPATHY, MYOFIBRILLAR, 8; MFM8

  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Scoliosis
  • Micrognathia
  • Muscle weakness
  • Ptosis
