- W2807887925 abstract "Myopathies are disorders in which a primary functional orstructural impairment of skeletal muscle exists.Muscle disorders aredifferentiated from disorders involving motor neurons,peripheral nervesor neuromuscular junction, by their characteristic clinical and laboratoryfeatures. Therefore, the approach to a patient with a suspected muscledisease is to determine the correct site of the lesion from history andphysical examination. Once localized to the muscle, the next step is toidentify whether the myopathy is due to a defect in the muscle channel,muscle structure, or a dysfunction in muscle metabolism. Subsequentlythe cause of the myopathy is to be determined.In general, Muscle disorders are classified into hereditary andacquired disorders. Hereditary muscle disorders have classical age atonset, inheritance pattern, clinical profile, pattern of involvement anddistinct laboratory features which helps in the diagnosis. This will help todecide on management and prognostication issues. It is also essential toidentify treatable acquired muscular disorders and to differentiate themfrom hereditary muscle disorders. We undertook this study of hereditarymuscle disorders to identify the clinical patterns and laboratory findingsin these conditions and study the correlation between them, which willhelp in recognizing them early for adequate management withrehabilitation measures and for prognostication.In conclusion, the following observations were made from our study,• Hereditary muscle disorders are common among males than in females.• Most of the patients with hereditary muscle disorders were in the age group of 10 to 20 years(2nd decade).• Earliest age of onset in our study was 2 years (DMD).• No patients with hereditary muscle disorders were found beyond 5th decade in our study.• Most common hereditary muscle disorders was LGMD(57%) followed by FSHD(11.4%) and BMD(11.4%).• Most common pattern of involvement was proximal limb girdle pattern with all DMD,BMD,LGMD,Congenital myopathy patients in that group.• Polyhill s ign and scapular winging were seen in all our patients with FSHD,which is a characteristic finding in this disease.Specific clinical signs were less commonly noted in our patients with LGMD.• Serum CK elevation is maximum (>25 times normal) in DMD,BMD,LGMD(AR inheritance) and minimum(1-2 times normal) in FSHD and the CK elevation correlates well with theclinical phenotype among various hereditary muscle disorders in our population.A strong correlation between elevated serum CKand clinical diagnosis of hereditary muscle disorders was noted in our study.• High degree of concordance of clinical diagnosis of hereditary muscle disorders with EMG was observed in our study. • High degree of concordance of clinical diagnosis of hereditary muscle disorders with muscle biopsy was observed in our study.Hence, a structured clinical approach focusing on pattern of muscle involvement and on specific clinical signs along with investigationslike serum CPK,EMG and Muscle biopsy,it is possible to make an accurate early diagnos is in hereditary muscle disorders,prognosticateand manage them appropriately to improve the quality of life in these patients." @default.
