Abstract

Congenital myopathies (CMYOs) represent a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by early-onset muscle weakness and distinct myopathologic features. The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has accelerated the identification of causative genes, leading to the discovery of novel CMYOs and thereby challenging the traditional classification. In this comprehensive review, we focus on the clinical, myopathologic, molecular and pathophysiological features of 33 newly identified CMYOs.

期刊介绍： This international, multidisciplinary journal covers all aspects of neuromuscular disorders in childhood and adult life (including the muscular dystrophies, spinal muscular atrophies, hereditary neuropathies, congenital myopathies, myasthenias, myotonic syndromes, metabolic myopathies and inflammatory myopathies). The Editors welcome original articles from all areas of the field: • Clinical aspects, such as new clinical entities, case studies of interest, treatment, management and rehabilitation (including biomechanics, orthotic design and surgery). • Basic scientific studies of relevance to the clinical syndromes, including advances in the fields of molecular biology and genetics. • Studies of animal models relevant to the human diseases. The journal is aimed at a wide range of clinicians, pathologists, associated paramedical professionals and clinical and basic scientists with an interest in the study of neuromuscular disorders.
