Core Tip |
Nemaline myopathy (NM) is a rare kind of congenital myopathy, with an incidence of 1: 50000. The pathological characteristic is accumulated “rod” shaped structures in the muscle biopsies observed by light or electron microscope. The patients of NM often have hypomyotonia and different degrees of muscle weakness. Skeletal muscles are always involved in this disease, while myocardial involvement is uncommon. However, it has been recognized that NM with mutation in myopalladin (MYPN) gene also result in dilated cardiomyopathy or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Here, we report a case of 3-year-old boy with NM who was admitted with dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure followed by genetic confirmation of NM with MYPN mutation. |
