novel heterozygous de novo c.679C>T (p.L227F) variant in theTUBA4A(NM_006000), encoding tubulin alpha-4A, in two unrelated patients with clinicopathologically diagnosed sporadic congenital myopathy. The prominent myopathological changes in both patients were muscle fibres with focal myofibrillar disorganisation and rimmed vacuoles. Immunofluorescence showed ubiquitin-positive TUBA4A protein aggregates in the muscle fibres with rimmed vacuoles.
