Description

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy-1 affects primarily the proximal muscles, resulting in difficulty walking. The age at onset varies, but most patients show onset in childhood, and the disorder is progressive. Other features may include scapular winging, calf pseudohypertrophy, and contractures.

Anazi et al. (2016) performed a study to determine the diagnostic yield of genomic tools in a cohort of 337 Intellectual Disability (ID) patients. By using molecular karyotyping, exome sequencing and a multi-gene panel comprised of neurologically associated genes, the authors were able to diagnose 58% of the cases compared to 16% using standard clinical evaluations. In one patient, the analysis helped uncover a homozygous mutation (c.1325G>A, p.Arg442Gln) in the CAPN3 gene, which is associated with pelvofemoral muscular dystrophy. However, the authors noted that the patient’s features of ID and severe hyperlaxity of joints were not typical presentations of this disorder.
