Abstract
Dominant mutations in CACNA1S gene mainly causes hypokalemic periodic paralysis (PP)(hypoPP). A 68-year-old male proband developed a progressive proximal weakness from the age of 35. Muscle biopsy showed atrophic fibers with vacuoles containing tubular aggregates. Exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous p.R528H (c.1583G>A) mutation in the CACNA1S gene. CACNA1S-related HypoPP evolving to persistent myopathy in late adulthood is a well-known clinical condition. However, isolated progressive myopathy (without PP) was only exceptionally reported and never with an early onset. Reporting a case of early onset CACNA1S-related myopathy in a patient with no HypoPP we intend to alert clinicians to consider it in the differential diagnosis of younger adult-onset myopathies especially when featuring vacuolar changes.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Neuromuscular Diseases aims to facilitate progress in understanding the molecular genetics/correlates, pathogenesis, pharmacology, diagnosis and treatment of acquired and genetic neuromuscular diseases (including muscular dystrophy, myasthenia gravis, spinal muscular atrophy, neuropathies, myopathies, myotonias and myositis). The journal publishes research reports, reviews, short communications, letters-to-the-editor, and will consider research that has negative findings. The journal is dedicated to providing an open forum for original research in basic science, translational and clinical research that will improve our fundamental understanding and lead to effective treatments of neuromuscular diseases.
