Core Tip |
Type 1 myotonic dystrophy is an often undetected neuromuscular disease in paediatric patients with variable clinical manifestations and burden of disease. We review the current understandings of disease pathogenesis, symptoms and management in congenital and childhood myotonic dystrophy with a particular focus on hypersomnolence and sleep disorders. Future directions should target standardised care and regular surveillance, understanding pathophysiology and new treatment strategies. |
