| Remarks |
Similarly affected brother; microcephalic; mental retard; muscle biopsy revealed a moderately severe myopathy; congenital muscular dystrophy with CNS involvement documented clinically & radiographically; 46,XX in PBL; possible Fukuyama type.
Medical history of the siblings was reported as below (Shanske, Fukuyama's disease in non-Japanese siblings. Am J Hum Genet 41:A83): "Our proband was 3 and 3/12 when first examined. He was the 2977 gm product of a term pregnancy delivered operatively to a 28 year old schizophrenic, ethanol abuser. His parents are unrelated blacks from the American South. His cognitive skills consolidated at the 6 month level. He is a mildly stigmatized, non-ambulatory, short youngster with prognathism, malocclusion, cranial asymmetry, generalized hypotonia and a mild decrease in muscle mass in all 4 extremities. A muscle biopsy, done at age 2, showed myopathic changes consistent with CMD;
an EMS was non-diagnostic but showed acute denervation activity; LDH of 924 U/L and, CPK of 31,600 IU/L and SGOT of 300 U/L; and a CAT scan of the head without contrast revealed a right arachnoid cyst and bifrontal atrophy. His sister was first examined when she was 5 and 1/12. She was the 2438 gm product of a term pregnancy. She was found to be microcephalic, but otherwise unstigmatized, ambulatory, and pervasively developmentally delayed. A muscle biopsy revealed a moderately severe myopathy; LDH of 789 U/L, CPK of 8578 IU/L, and SGOT of 128 U/L. These children have CMD with CNS involvement demonstrated clinically and radiographically."
