Red List (low evidence)

Comment when marking as ready: AD (commonest) of adult onset. AR in Canadian cree only, presenting earlier but with hypertonia. Not appropriate for inclusion criteria
Created: 3 Feb 2017, 10:47 a.m.
Comment on mode of inheritance: Reported cases in Canadian Cree population of infantile onset (but hypertonia) therefore considered as both biallelic and monoallelic
Created: 3 Feb 2017, 10:45 a.m.
Comment on list classification: The AD form is of adult onset. The only reported cases of infantile onset are from a specific population (Canadian Cree) with founder effect. The infants also presented with hypertonia, not hypotonia.

The AD form is of adult onset. The only reported cases of infantile onset are from a specific population (Canadian Cree) with founder effect. The infants also presented with hypertonia and respiratory compromise. Therefore the phenotype is not what I would consider consistent for a congenital myopathy panel.
