摘要: Dystrophinopathies result from mutations of the DMD gene that primarily affect skeletal muscle but also heart, brain, and smooth muscle. Advances in genetic analysis these disorders have improved diagnosis counseling are leading to effective therapies. This chapter details factors underlying etiology pathogenesis dystrophinopathies, discusses heterogeneous clinical presentations seen both males females. The differential appropriate diagnostic testing strategies itemized.
