Distal muscular dystrophy Classification and external resources ICD-10 G71.0 ICD-9 359.1 OMIM 254130 604454 606768 DiseasesDB 31977 33507 MeSH D049310 Distal muscular dystrophy (or distal myopathy) is a group of disorders characterized by onset in the hands or feet.
Many types involve dysferlin, but it has been suggested that not all cases do.[1]
Types include:
Name OMIM Locus Miyoshi myopathy (in Japan)[2] 254130 DYSF at 2p13.3-p13.1 Distal myopathy with anterior tibial onset 606768 DYSF at 2p13.3-p13.1 Welander distal myopathy 604454 ? at 2p13[3] DYSF is also associated with Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B.[4]
