NX GEN SEQ, DUCHENNE & BECKER MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY FOR MLPA NEGATIVE CASES
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are X-linked recessive muscular dystrophies caused by mutations in the dystrophin/DMD gene. DMD affects 1/3000 male births and is more common than BMD. Both disorders affect proximal muscles specially of lower extremities. DMD manifests early with difficulty in climbing stairs and running but later it leads to generalized weakness. BMD manifests between 5-15 years of age and progresses at a much slower rate. Cardiac involvement is common in both diseases and may result in heart failure. Mental retardation may occur in both disorders but is more common in DMD.
