Abstract

Dysferlinopathy includes a rare spectrum of muscle disease characterized by two main phenotypes [Miyoshi myopathy (MM) and limbgirdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD 2B)] and results from a mutation in the gene that codes dysferlin protein (DYSF gene, 2p13). In this report, we present two cases with dysferlinopathy whose diagnoses were confirmed by clinical and muscle biopsy findings.
