Congenital myopathies are genetic disorders with early symptoms and distinct morphological findings. This review summarizes clinical, pathological, and genetic details of common types, aiding diagnosis and research.

Area of Science:

  • Neuromuscular disorders
  • Genetics
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Congenital myopathies present early with characteristic morphological findings.
  • These are genetically diverse diseases affecting muscle development.
  • Understanding their clinical, pathological, and genetic basis is crucial.

Purpose:

  • To review the clinical, pathological, and genetic findings of common congenital myopathies.
  • To provide a comprehensive overview for researchers and clinicians.
  • To highlight key genetic mutations and their associated phenotypes.

Summary:

  • Myotubular myopathy, often fatal in males, involves the myotubularin protein and Xq28 gene mutations.
  • Centronuclear myopathy presents heterogeneously with variable inheritance and phenotypes.

  • Central core disease (CCD) is linked to RYR1 gene mutations and malignant hyperthermia.
  • Minicore myopathy and nemaline myopathy involve various genes including RYR1, selenoprotein N, TPM3, NEB, ACTA1, TPM2, and TNNT1.

    • Impact:

    • Facilitates accurate diagnosis and classification of congenital myopathies.
    • Informs genetic counseling and potential therapeutic strategies.
    • Advances understanding of muscle development and disease mechanisms.
