[ "The development of a tracheo-arterial fistula is a rare but severe complication of tracheotomy. The reported patient presented with such a fistula involving an aberrant right subclavian artery, termed an arteria lusoria, an aortic arch abnormality which is usually asymptomatic.", "A 30-year-old man was admitted to our institution for bleeding through his tracheotomy. He had been treated for advanced Duchenne muscular dystrophy, involving invasive assisted ventilation, since the age of 10 years. Surgical exploration and computed tomography scanning revealed a tracheo-arterial fistula involving an aberrant right subclavian artery, associated with severe scoliosis. Emergency, transient haemostasis was achieved by over-inflation of the tracheostomy tube cuff. Aneurysm ablation was successfully achieved as the result of an endovascular interventional radiology procedure.", "Arteria lusoria is one of the most common aortic arch abnormalities. The occurrence of an aneurysm of this artery in a tracheotomised patient has not previously been described. In Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients, spinal deformities may result in thoracic compression, which may alter the anatomical relations of mediastinal vessels. Such deformities are slowly progressive. Thus, vigilance is required in the long term management of Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients with a tracheostomy." ]

Three male children (mean age 5.7 years) were inappropriately addressed, during the last 12 months, to our paediatric liver unit for diagnostic work-up of a chronic hypertransaminasemia of unknown origin. In one of them, a liver biopsy had already been performed. On admission, physical examination, evaluation of serum levels of creatine kinase, and dystrophin genetic testing finally led to a diagnosis of muscular dystrophy.

[ "Here, we report on a boy affected by both cerebral palsy and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). He had infrequently used his right hand since birth. But brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) taken at the age of 15 months showed no specific finding. Approximately 1 month later, muscle enzymes of his older brother were incidentally found to be elevated. The patient and his brother were diagnosed with progressive muscular dystrophy by gene analysis. At the age of 6 years, he underwent orthopedic surgery due to a right equinovarus deformity and BMD was confirmed by concomitant muscle biopsy. During the post-operative rehabilitation, clumsiness of the right hand was also observed. A follow-up brain MRI with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was taken.

Her medical history was notable for spina bifida in association with a Chiari type II malformation and hydrocephalus. Developmental motor milestones were delayed whereby walking began at age 2. She had mild bowel and bladder dysfunction. At presentation, her neurological exam was notable for weak shoulder adduction, hip and knee flexion and she demonstrated a partial Gower's maneuver.

[ "Drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome is a type of drug hypersensitivity reaction characterized by the clinical triad of skin eruption, fever, and internal organ involvement. Drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome has rarely been reported in association with vancomycin or in the pediatric population. There have only been four pediatric case reports of drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome and three cases of drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome involving vancomycin published in the English literature to date.", "We describe two pediatric cases of drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome to illustrate the range in severity of presentation. The first case illustrates drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome associated with vancomycin exposure in a 14-yr-old boy with Duchenne muscular dystrophy after posterior spinal fusion, whose clinical presentation was indistinguishable from toxic shock syndrome. The second case illustrates a milder and more typical presentation of drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome in a 14-yr-old boy being treated with minocycline for acne. We also present a review of the literature relevant to this syndrome.", ": Drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome is relatively unknown among general pediatricians and pediatric intensivists and may potentially become more common with the increasing use of long-term medications in the pediatric population. Our cases demonstrate the importance of an awareness of drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome among general pediatricians and pediatric intensivists because drug rash, eosinophilia, and systemic symptoms syndrome may present in any range of severity, from indolent illness to frank and refractory shock." ]

[ "Episodic myoglobinuria is a well-recognized complication of metabolic myopathies, and may occur in Duchenne and Becker dystrophies, but has only rarely been associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. We describe an unusual presentation, with rhabdomyolysis, of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD). We evaluated a patient for progressive muscle weakness and tenderness, with myoglobinuria one week after initial presentation. Immunohistochemistry on muscle tissue revealed absent staining for gamma-sarcoglycan, confirmed by detection of a homozygous mutation in the gamma-sarcoglycan gene. Myoglobinuria has been previously reported only twice in LGMD. It is therefore important to recognize that myoglobinuria may be a symptom of a muscular dystrophy, and muscle biopsy and immunostaining are important tools for diagnosis." ]

[ "A previously fit 12-yr-old boy, who had no previous history of anaesthesia, underwent general anaesthesia using isoflurane for an elective circumcision. After uneventful surgery and anaesthesia, he suffered a cardiorespiratory arrest in the recovery room. Prompt oxygenation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were instituted. The initial serum potassium was >13 mmol litre(-1) and prolonged CPR was required while potassium levels were reduced. Further investigation demonstrated a creatine kinase (CK) >70 000 U litre(-1) which was consistent with a diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis. Despite requiring CPR for 1 h 45 min and a prolonged intensive care admission for multi-organ failure, the child has made an excellent recovery, including normal cognitive function. Subsequent genetic analysis has shown that the boy has previously undiagnosed Becker's muscular dystrophy. We believe that the patient had acute rhabdomyolysis as a result of a volatile anaesthetic agent in association with an undiagnosed muscular dystrophy. In recent years, largely based on case report literature, there has been a shift in opinion as to the cause of such adverse perioperative events. What was previously thought to be malignant hyperpyrexia (MH) is now considered to be anaesthesia-induced rhabdomyolysis, an alternative and distinct reaction. The distinguishing feature of anaesthesia-induced rhabdomyolysis from MH is an acute rhabdomyolysis, without preceding hypermetabolism." ]

Immunohistochemical staining in the brother's muscle biopsy showed near absence of all four sarcoglycan subunits. Clinical progression prompted a trial of deflazacort in both siblings. At 22 months of drug therapy, both patients have stable or improved strength testing. Further analysis on the muscle biopsy revealed homozygous beta-sarcoglycan gene mutation (S114F), consistent with the limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2E (LGME 2E).

[ "Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a common childhood lethal X-linked recessive disorder, resulting from deletions, duplications and point mutations in the dystrophin gene. Single-cell protocols for preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) still remain challenging due to the enormous size of the gene and the high risk of intragenic recombination, limitations that often lead to sex determination and selection of female embryos. This study describes direct and rapid decaplex and dodecaplex polymerase chain reaction protocols enabling the analysis of five or seven exons and four microsatellite markers scattered along the dystrophin gene, chosen to be located in the two deletion hotspots, and the analysis of amelogenin sequences for gender determination. The dodecaplex protocol may be applied to most of the couples requesting PGD for DMD in whom the female partner is a carrier of a deletion. This generic approach will allow prompt response to the PGD referrals by reducing the pre-clinical PGD work-up. It was successfully applied in three DMD families, resulting in the birth of a girl as well as in a healthy ongoing pregnancy." ]

[ "We report a case of an infant where the association of Duchenne's muscular dystrophy (DMD) and pseudohypertriglyceridaemia led to the diagnosis of contiguous gene deletion syndrome in Xp21.", "A 7-month-old male infant who was referred due to psychomotor retardation. The examination revealed pronounced axial hypotonia. Lab findings showed high levels of muscular enzymes with creatine phosphokinase levels of 12,829 IU/L, together with high blood levels of triglycerides. Electromyogram findings were consistent with myopathic compromise. The genetic study for dystrophinopathies revealed the existence of a deletion in the dystrophin gene. Further lab findings identified high glycerol concentrations both in blood and in urine that were compatible with a glycerol kinase deficiency. The genetic study confirmed the existence of a deletion in Xp21 of the genes responsible for DMD, the glycerol kinase deficiency, the congenital adrenal hypoplasia (gene DAX1) and mental retardation (gene IL1RAPL1).", "In infants and small children with myopathic compromise, increased levels of creatine phosphokinase and pseudohypertriglyceridaemia it is essential to take into account contiguous gene deletion syndrome in Xp21 to be able to prevent and treat the metabolic complications arising from adrenal hypoplasia." ]

[ "We report a 69-year-old woman who presented with dyspnea, orthopnea, and acute renal failure. She also had proximal muscle weakness suggestive of muscle disease. Her symptoms were alleviated by induced dieresis, although there was high-serum creatine kinase. Investigations for any possible etiologies of rhabdomyolysis were all negative. An X-linked recessive muscle disease was highly suspicious in view of the fact that both of her sons had suffered from muscle disease and died of respiratory failure at the ages of 22 and 29, respectively. Her muscle biopsy showed mosaic pattern with dystrophin antibody against amino-terminal, carboxy-terminal, and rod domain. Her DNA study revealed heterozygous duplication at exon 1 to 6 of the dystrophin gene as well. Therefore, she is a manifesting carrier of dystrophinopathy who was first diagnosed in late adulthood with congestive heart failure, acute episode of spontaneous rhabdomyolysis, and acute renal failure." ]

Its onset is often in early childhood and presents with proximal distribution of weakness and a progressive course. Cardiac involvement in DMD is common, and its onset is usually after the age of 10 years. The most common cardiac manifestations are a dilated cardiomyopathy and cardiac arrhythmia. However, pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade is a very rare cardiac complication of DMD. We report a boy with DMD who initially presented with progressive dyspnea and an enlarged cardiac silhouette on chest radiography who subsequently developed a large pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade. Early recognition of pericardial effusion with cardiac tamponade is important for institution appropriate therapy." ]

[ "Duplications of one or more exons of the dystrophin gene are the second most common mutation in dystrophinopathies. Even though duplications are suggested to occur with greater complexity than thought earlier, they have been considered an intragenic event. Here, we report the insertion of a part of the IL1RAPL1 (interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein-like 1) gene into the duplication junction site. When the actual exon junction was examined in 15 duplication mutations in the dystrophin gene by analyzing dystrophin mRNA, one patient was found to have an unknown 621 bp insertion at the junction of duplication of exons from 56 to 62. Unexpectedly, the inserted sequence was found completely identical to sequences of exons 3-5 of the IL1RAPL1 gene that is nearly 100 kb distal from the dystrophin gene. Accordingly, the insertion of IL1RAPL1 exons 3-5 between dystrophin exons 62 and 56 was confirmed at the genomic sequence level. One junction between the IL1RAPL1 intron 5 and dystrophin intron 55 was localized within an Alu sequence. These results showed that a fragment of the IL1RAPL1 gene was inserted into the duplication junction of the dystrophin gene in the same direction as the dystrophin gene. This suggests the novel possibility of co-occurrence of complex genomic rearrangements in dystrophinopathy." ]

The frequency of normal versus mutant genes were determined in blood/DNA (50:50), muscle/DNA (80:20) and muscle/mRNA (90:10). These data are consistent with genetic normalization processes that may biochemically rescue skeletal muscle in male somatic mosaic patients mitigating muscle symptoms (gradual loss of dystrophin-negative skeletal muscle tissue replaced by dystrophin-positive stem cells). To our knowledge, this is only the second reported case of a clinically ascertained patient showing somatic mosaicism for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). We hypothesize that many somatic mosaic males for DMD exist, yet they are not detected clinically due to genetic normalization. Somatic mosaicism for DMD should be considered in acute heart failure with dilated cardiomyopathy, as genetic normalization in heart is unlikely to occur." ]

[ "Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked condition at the severe end of the spectrum of dystrophinopathies. Females with dystrophin mutations are at risk for cardiomyopathy, but are usually asymptomatic during childhood. However, some girls can exhibit features of Duchenne muscular dystrophy because of skewed X-inactivation, aneuploidy, or chromosomal rearrangement. Oculo-facio-cardio-dental syndrome is a rare X-linked disorder, lethal in males, that comprises microphthalmia, congenital cataracts, congenital heart defect, canine radiculomegaly, and digital anomalies. We report on a 7-year-old girl who was referred for muscular hypotonia, with clinical features of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, including elevated serum creatine phosphokinase, pseudohypertrophy of calf muscles, and muscle weakness, which became evident at 3 years of age. In addition, she had multiple congenital anomalies including atrial septal defect, cataracts, dental and digital anomalies, a constellation that suggested the diagnosis of oculo-facio-cardio-dental syndrome, a condition caused by mutations in BCOR. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis of muscle, and mutation analysis of DMD showed a maternally inherited deletion of exons 30-43, confirming the diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Studies of lymphocytes showed essentially complete skewing of X-inactivation. Mutation analysis of BCOR revealed a de novo frameshift mutation (c.1005delC). Thus, we report for the first time on an individual with the co-occurrence of Duchenne muscular dystrophy and oculo-facio-cardio-dental syndrome." ]

[ "Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been widely used to decrease the complications associated with tracheal intubation in mechanically ventilated patients with neuromuscular diseases in acute respiratory failure. However, nasal ulcerations might occur when masks are used as an interface. Helmet ventilation is a possible option in this case. We describe two patients with acute respiratory failure due to Duchenne muscular dystrophy who developed nasal bridge skin necrosis during NIV. Helmet pressure support ventilation caused significant patient-ventilator asynchrony, leading to NIV intolerance. Thus, biphasic positive airway pressure delivered by helmet was applied, which improved gas exchange and patient-ventilator interaction, allowing successful NIV." ]

[ "A number of prominent bioethicists, such as Parker, Lucassen and Knoppers, have called for the adoption of a system in which by default genetic information is shared among family members. This paper suggests that a main reason given in support of this call to share genetic information among family members is the idea that genetic information is essentially familial in nature. On examining this \"familial nature of genetics\" argument, the paper shows that most genetic information is only shared in a weaker way among family members and does not necessarily lead to the actual manifestation of particular diseases. The upshot is that the idea that genetic information is familial in nature does not provide sufficient ground for moving towards a system in which by default genetic information is shared among family members." ]

[ "We report, for the first time, on a female Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) patient with homozygous dystrophin deletion. The 14-year-old patient, product of consanguineous parents, presented with a 7-year history of exercise intolerance and recurrent myoglobinuria. Although CK was elevated to 1,800 U/L, no muscle weakness, atrophy, or hypertrophy was seen on examination. Muscle pathology demonstrated a minimal dystrophic change and faint dystrophin staining pattern. Semi-quantitative PCR of dystrophin revealed a homozygous dystrophin deletion of exons 45-55, which is predicted to remove 593 amino acids without frame shifting. Western blot analysis of skeletal muscle for dystrophin showed a 306 kDa band; thus, we made a diagnosis of female BMD. We confirmed identical deletion in both father and mother, in hemizygous and heterozygous modes, respectively. Neither female Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) nor BMD due to homozygous dystrophin mutation has ever been identified although female DMD has been found in patients with Turner syndrome or unilateral parental disomy for X chromosome. Our results indicate that dystrophinopathy can also be caused in females by homozygosity, albeit rare." ]

[ "A child with global developmental delay sparing motor skills evolving into later intellectual disability with a consistently normal neuromuscular examination was discovered to have a dystrophin specific mutation in the 3' end of the gene. The deletion in the DMD gene was unsuspected and discovered through array comparative genomic hybridization and confirmed on polymerase chain reaction analysis. This case shows a central nervous system-specific and restrictive phenotype for a disorder that is conceptualized as being progressively neuromuscular in clinical expression. Given the familial and therapeutic implications for accurate diagnosis of DMD mutations, this case raises the possible need for screening boys with global developmental delay/intellectual disability even in the absence of any overt muscle weakness and further shows the utility of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis in the evaluation of patients with nonsyndromic mental retardation." ]

[ "Familial hyperCKemia is a rare condition, and a combination with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is extremely rare. A boy showed muscle weakness from the age of 10 months and presented typical signs of DMD at the age of 18 months. The diagnosis was supported by markedly elevated serum creatine kinase (CK) value as well as by neurophysiological and muscle biopsy findings at the age of 23 months. The diagnosis was confirmed by identification of a stop codon in exon 43 (p.2095Arg>X) of the dystrophin gene.

[ "Duchenne's muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and severe form of myopathy occurring in pediatric patients. Sensitivity of patients with DMD to sedative, anesthetic and neuromuscular blocking agents may result in intraoperative and early postoperative cardiovascular and respiratory complications, as well as prolonged recovery from anesthesia. Anesthetic management of these patients is challenging and may cause serious problems to the anesthesiologist. We report the use of a total intravenous anesthesia technique (TIVA) with remifentanil and propofol without muscle relaxants, associated with intrathecal morphine in three children with DMD undergoing posterior spinal surgery (PSS). Tracheal intubation was successfully done with good conditions. The intraoperative course of these patients was uneventful. Controlled hypotension, rapid recovery and uneventful postoperative period were achieved with this technique. In conclusion, good conditions for tracheal intubation, controlled hypotension, rapid recovery and uneventful postoperative period can be achieved with this anesthesia technique in patients with DMD." ]

Echochardiography and cardiac catheterization revealed severely reduced left ventricular function (LVF). Coronary artery disease was excluded. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging showed transmural, intramural and subepicardial late gadolinium enhancement. Myocardial biopsy excluded viral infection and showed severe myopathic changes with abnormal expression of dystrophin and utrophin. Moleculargenetic analysis of the DMD gene revealed frameshift duplication of exon 2. The patient received conventional heart failure therapy, implantable cardioverter/defibrillator-implantation and prednisolone to attenuate cardiac degradation. 6 months later she had improved clinically though LVF was still severely reduced." ]

[ "We describe a case of female Becker muscular dystrophy with 45,X/46,X,r(X), carrying an out-of-frame deletion in a nonhot-spot region of the DMD gene. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction did not detect the deletion, because the deleted exons 31-42 comprise a nonhot-spot region, and the product for exon 43 was detected because of the amplification of the DMD gene in the ring X chromosome, affecting 24% of cells. We identified the somatic mutation by assessing relative probe signal intensity for exons 31-43, using a multiple ligation probe amplification assay. This case did not conform to the reading-frame rule. The presence of the ring X chromosome that retains the DMD gene that escapes X inactivation may have contributed some degree of compensation for the dystrophin deficiency. This finding could indicate that the reading-frame rule for correlation of clinical severity with type of deletion may not be applicable in Turner mosaicism. Approximately half of patients with Turner syndrome manifest some degree of chromosomal mosaicism. Multiple ligation probe amplification analysis could be a first-choice method for detecting deletions or duplications in Turner mosaic patients such as female carriers." ]

[ "Impaired cough that results in ineffective airway secretion clearance is an important contributor to pulmonary complications in patients with neuromuscular weakness including spinal cord injury. Mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) is a respiratory aid used by patients with weak respiratory muscles to increase cough peak flows and improve cough effectiveness. Relative contraindications to MI-E are said to include susceptibility to pneumothorax, but the association of pneumothorax with MI-E use has never before been described. We report two cases of pneumothorax in patients with respiratory muscle weakness associated with daily use of MI-E: one was a 58-yr-old male with C4 ASIA C tetraplegia, and the other was a 26-yr-old male with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Both patients also used positive-pressure ventilatory assistance. Although seemingly rare in this patient population, ventilator users also using MI-E who have increasing dyspnea or who require increasing positive inspiratory pressures when using noninvasive ventilation should be evaluated for pneumothorax." ]

[ "An uncommon occurrence during central venous catheterization, inadvertent arterial sheath placement can cause potentially serious complications. When the subclavian artery is inadvertently cannulated, catheter removal may be complicated by significant hemorrhage due to its noncompressible location. We report a case of inadvertent insertion of a 7 Fr central venous catheter into the subclavian artery of a patient with severe kyphoscoliosis, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and cardiomyopathy. The catheter was successfully removed, however the initial attempt at closure device deployment resulted in abrupt closure of the subclavian artery. Prompt angiography and balloon inflation via an already present sheath in the brachiocephalic artery resulted in restoration of flow and successful closure at the puncture site with the collagen-based vascular closure device was confirmed. This averted an otherwise urgent surgical sheath removal and arteriotomy repair in an extremely high-risk patient who was deemed a poor candidate for open surgical repair." ]

Since then, WPW syndrome was occasionally found on repeated cardiologic follow-up investigations. From age 27 years, he developed proximal muscle weakness predominantly of the lower limbs, a positive Gower sign, and a waddling gait. Needle electromyograms were repeatedly myogenic, and upon reinvestigation at age 42 years, a deletion of exons 45-47 in the dystrophin gene was detected.

[ "Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutation of the dystrophin gene. Cases of dystrophinopathy with a 2-bp deletion in the dystrophin gene commonly result in DMD. We report here a case of dystrophinopathy in a 9-years-old boy with a 2-bp deletion in exon 74 of the dystrophin gene; however, the boy had no clear clinical signs of muscle weakness. Immunohistochemical studies with N-terminal (DYS3) and rod-domain anti-dystrophin (DYS1) antibodies revealed that the dystrophin signals were weaker than in the control sample (non-dystrophinopathy) at the sarcolemma of myofibers, and the studies with C-terminus anti-dystrophin antibody (DYS2) were negative. Our patient's mutation is located between the binding sites of alpha-syntrophin and alpha-dystrobrevin. These results suggest that this mutation does not clearly induce muscle weakness at least through the age of 9 years." ]

[ "We review the clinical status of skeletal involvement and cardiac function in three unrelated patients harboring an in-frame deletion of exons 45 to 55 in the DMD gene followed up for 2 to 7 years. Two younger patients diagnosed as having X-linked dilated cardiomyopathy (XLDCM) developed congestive heart failure without overt skeletal myopathy. Heart failure recurred after viral infection but responded well to diuretics and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. One older patient diagnosed with Becker muscular dystrophy showed limb-girdle muscular atrophy and weakness at the age of 50, but did not have any cardiac symptoms. Skeletal muscle involvement in each patient remained unchanged, and cardiac function did not worsen in any of the patients during the study. In a younger XLDCM patient, the amount and molecular weight of mutant dystrophin were equally slightly decreased in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. Immunostaining for dystrophin and dystrophin-associated proteins was slightly reduced in both skeletal and cardiac muscle, with no discernible difference between the two. The phenotype of this dystrophinopathy can manifest as XLDCM in younger patients; however, careful attention to cardiac management may result in a favorable prognosis." ]

[ "Mutations in the dystrophin gene result in the most common inherited muscle disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Duplications spanning one or more exons have been found to be the second most common disease-causing mutation in the dystrophin gene. Although the duplicated exons are commonly thought to be arranged in tandem, rare noncontiguous exon duplications have been disclosed without clarifying their location or orientation. Here we present the first report that details the exact locations and orientations of noncontiguous duplications in the dystrophin gene. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification analysis of the dystrophin gene of a Japanese boy with DMD revealed that his genomic DNA contained duplications of exons from two separate fragments of the gene: one from exon 45 to exon 48 and the other from exon 55 to exon 63. To clarify the locations and orientations of the duplicated exons, reverse transcription-nested PCR analysis of dystrophin mRNA was conducted. Interestingly, the extra copies of exons 45-48 and exons 55-63 were found to be properly oriented between exons 48 and 49 and exons 63 and 64, respectively. These results indicated that two tandem duplication events occurred in the dystrophin gene of this patient and should contribute to the understanding of the duplication mechanisms that contribute to the development of DMD." ]

[ "Glycerol kinase deficiency (GKD), a rare X-linked recessive disorder, is classified into two types: isolated and complex. Complex GKD is an Xp21 contiguous gene deletion involving the glycerol kinase locus together with the adrenal hypoplasia congenita (AHC) or Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) loci or both. Its clinical features depend on the involved loci. GKD can be confirmed by an elevated urinary glycerol concentration tested by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The three cases reported here were all male, presenting symptoms from neonatal period. The predominant clinical profile was characterized by hypoadrenocorticism, glyceroluria and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. After receiving a low fat diet and glucocorticoid replacement, they improved with relieved symptoms of hypoadrenocorticism. But they had significant developmental delays and myasthenia. In the follow-up two of them died of adrenal crisis." ]

Preoperatively, he required low-flow nasal oxygen due to bronchopulmonary dysplasia, chronic diuretic therapy, and IV alimentation. As planned preoperatively, the infant remained tracheally intubated after his elective surgery and went to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in stable condition.

[ "We report a 24-year-old male with an unusual combination of two inherited neuromuscular disorders--Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease type 1A and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). A phenotypic presentation of this patient included features of both these disorders. Nerve conduction studies revealed demyelinating peripheral neuropathy. Electromyography showed a profound myogenic pattern. The serum creatine kinase level was highly elevated. Muscle biopsy revealed a dystrophic picture with deficient dystrophin immunostaining. CMT1A duplication on chromosome 17p11.2 was found. The frame-shift mutation c.3609-3612delTAAAinsCTT (p.K1204LfsX11) was detected in the dystrophin gene by analysing mRNA isolated from the muscle tissue. The patient inherited both these mutations from his mother. The combination of CMT1A and DMD has not been reported as yet." ]

[ "Complex glycerol kinase (GK) deficiency is a contiguous deletion of genes in Xp21 with loss of the locus for GK, for congenital adrenal hypoplasia (AHC) and/or for Duchenne's muscular dystrophy (DMD). We report the case of a 7-year-old patient with this rare disease.", "Our patient was a full-term male, with normal gestation and delivery, and no relevant family history. At the age of 11 days he presented a clinical picture of salt loss with lethargy, vomiting, metabolic acidosis, hypoglycaemia, hyponatraemia and hyperpotassaemia. Fluid therapy and treatment with corticoids was established. The patient's condition developed with moderate mental retardation and progressive muscular weakness. In the physical examination, the skull and face were seen to be 'hourglass' shaped. Decompensations associated to infectious processes and fasting hypoglycaemia, hydroelectrolytic disorders and ketoacidosis are all frequent. Lab findings showed a drop in cortisol levels, elevation of muscle enzymes, 'pseudohypertriglyceridaemia' and raised levels of glycerol in plasma and urine. Karyotype and neuroimaging tests were normal. A myopathic pattern was observed in the electromyogram. The genetic study confirmed the deletion in Xp21 of the genes responsible for DMD, the GK deficit and AHC.", "Early identification of this disease makes it possible to foresee the acute metabolic decompensations and to establish suitable genetic counselling. CK and triglyceride counts should be performed in all male patients that present a suprarenal hypoplasia; if levels are high, then it is necessary to confirm the raised glycerol values and to carry out a confirmatory genetic study." ]

[ "Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are caused by various mutations in the dystrophin gene. Rapid prenatal diagnosis of DMD with gene duplications is difficult due to limitation in gene dosage determination and the requirement for a known disease-causing mutation in the pedigree to achieve a rapid and accurate diagnosis. We report, here, a case with rapid prenatal diagnosis of DMD-affected male with gene duplications in the absence of a known disease-causing variation in the pedigree by using ion-pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (IP-RP-HPLC) coupled with competitive multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) protocol. In cases with clinical diagnosis of DMD/BMD, this test should identify greater than 92% of disease-causing DNA variants. The postnatal genetic diagnosis of this case and the same disease-causing mutations subsequently identified in other members of the pedigree confirmed the accuracy of competitive multiplex PCR/IP-RP-HPLC assay in direct prenatal diagnosis of DMD." ]

[ "The McLeod phenotype is derived from various forms of XK gene defects that result in the absence of XK protein, and is defined hematologically by the absence of Kx antigen, weakening of Kell system antigens, and red cell acanthocytosis. Individuals with the McLeod phenotype usually develop late-onset neuromuscular abnormalities known as the McLeod syndrome (MLS). MLS is an X-linked multi-system disorder caused by absence of XK alone, or when the disorder is caused by large deletions, it may be accompanied with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), chronic granulomatous disease (CYBB), retinitis pigmentosa (RPGR), and ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTC). XK defects derived from a large deletion at the XK locus (Xp21.1) have not been characterized at the molecular level. In this study, the deletion breakpoints of two novel cases of McLeod phenotype with extensive deletions are reported. Case 1 has greater than 1.12 million base-pairs (mb) deletion around the XK locus with 7 genes affected. Case 2 has greater than 5.65 mb deletion from TCTE1L to DMD encompassing 20 genes. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that DMD, XK and CYBB have close paralogs, some of which may partially substitute for the functions of their counterparts. The loci around XK are highly conserved from fish to human; however, the disorders are probably specific to mammals, and may coincide with the translocation of the loci to the X chromosome after the speciation in birds. The non-synonymous to synonymous nucleotide substitution rate ratio (omega=dN/dS) in these genes was examined.

[ "Keto-acidosis is usually associated with uncontrolled diabetes and typically poses few diagnostic problems when presenting as hyperglycaemia, metabolic acidosis and a high anion gap. An emaciated patient suffering from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and volume depletion presented with acidosis of unknown origin. Preliminary investigations appeared to rule out lactic acidosis, diabetic keto-acidosis and acidosis due to base loss. We have previously reported a technique utilizing liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) which can be used to characterize the underlying aetiology of acidosis and applied it to ultrafiltrate derived from a blood sample taken from this patient. The anion profile obtained on the chromatogram showed elevated levels of acetoacetate and hydroxybutyrate but no evidence of lactic acidosis, nor was the profile typical of that seen in 'unexplained' acidosis. We concluded that the patient was suffering from keto-acidosis associated with starvation and dehydration, the biochemical features being obscured by both the patient's chronic malnutrition and minimal muscle mass. A combination of enteral feeding and rehydration led to prompt resolution of the patient's metabolic acidosis." ]

[ "A 6-year-old boy with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and foreseen difficult tracheal intubation underwent tonsillectomy under general inhaled anesthesia with sevoflurane. No neuromuscular blockers were administered and no perioperative complications emerged. In spite of advances in genetic diagnosis there continue to be patients with DMD because of spontaneous mutation of the dystrophin gene. Late detection leaves them vulnerable to administration of drugs like succinylcholine that can trigger fatal reactions involving hyperpotassemia, rhabdomyolysis, and malignant hyperthermia. Total intravenous anesthesia seems the best way to provide general anesthesia for a patient with DMD. Inhaled anesthesia is an alternative. Although halogenated agents can lead to rhabdomyolysis and malignant hyperthermia, the frequency seems low if we bear in mind that the use of sevoflurane is widespread in pediatrics. In this case sevoflurane induction facilitated safe tracheal intubation." ]

[ "Production of semi-functional dystrophin mRNA from the dystrophin gene encoding a premature stop codon has been shown to modify the severe phenotype of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). In this study, we report the tissue-specific production of semi-functional dystrophin mRNA via activation of a nonsense mutation-created intraexonic splice acceptor site. In a DMD patient a novel nonsense mutation was identified in exon 42. In his lymphocytes semi-functional dystrophin mRNA with a 63-nucleotide deletion in exon 42 (dys-63) was found to be produced. In vitro splicing assay using hybrid minigenes disclosed that the mutation-created intraexonic splice acceptor site was activated. In his skeletal muscle cells, however, only the authentically spliced dystrophin mRNA was found. This finding identifies the modulation of the splicing of muscle dystrophin mRNA in cases of DMD as a potential target for therapeutic strategies to generate a milder phenotype for this disease." ]

[ "The dystrophin gene, which is mutated in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, is the largest known human gene and characterized by the huge size of its introns. Intron 2 has been shown to include cryptic exons termed exons 2a and 2b, while intron 3 has been shown to include a cryptic exon designated exon 3a. In the present study, we identified 2 and 1 additional cryptic exons in introns 2 and 3, respectively. A previously unknown 157-bp insertion was identified between exons 2 and 3 of a dystrophin mRNA isolated from the lymphocytes of a dystrophinopathy patient with duplication of exons 8-11. Since this sequence exhibited the typical characteristics of a genomic exon, we designated it \"exon 2c-l\". A more detailed examination revealed that a position 4 bp downstream from the 5' end of exon 2c-l was also used as a splice acceptor site, and this exon was designated \"exon 2c-s\". In the same patient, a 357-bp insertion was identified between exons 3 and 4. Since this sequence also showed the typical characteristics of an exon, and its 3' end was the same as the splice donor site of exon 3a, we designated the novel cryptic exon \"exon 3a-l\", and changed the name of the previously reported exon 3a to \"exon 3a-s\". Among these novel cryptic exons, exon 3a-l was also incorporated into the dystrophin mRNA from normal lymphocytes, whereas exons 2c-l and 2c-s were not. The physiological or pathophysiological roles of these novel cryptic exons remain to be clarified." ]

MDA amplified DNA from 49 single human blastomeres with 100% success. The MDA products were genotyped using a total of 57 polymorphic markers for chromosomes 1, 7, 13, 18, 21, X and Y; 72% of alleles amplified providing results at 90% of the loci tested. A PGH cycle was carried out for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. One embryo was biopsied: PGH showed a non-carrier female, which was transferred with no resulting pregnancy. A PGH cycle was carried out for cystic fibrosis. Seven embryos were biopsied and PGH allowed the exclusion of 2 affected embryos; a carrier and a non-carrier embryo were transferred resulting in an on-going twin pregnancy. PGH represents a paradigm shift in embryo diagnosis, as one panel of markers can be used for all carriers of the same monogenic disease, bypassing the need for development of mutation-specific tests, and widening the scope and availability of preimplantation genetic testing." ]

Although exonic splicing enhancers have been identified as a stretch of purine-rich sequences, it has been difficult to precisely pinpoint the determinant nucleotides in these sequences. This article reports that a 4-bp deletion in exon 38 of the dystrophin gene induced complete exon 38 skipping in vivo. Moreover, the third nucleotide of the deletion was shown to be determinant for the exonic splicing enhancer activity in in vivo splicing analysis of hybrid minigenes encoding mutant exons.", "Genomic DNA analysis of a 2-year-old boy with a raised level of serum creatine kinase yielded a 4-bp deletion 11 bp upstream of the 3' end of exon 38 of the dystrophin gene (c. 5434-5437del TTCA), disrupting a predicted SC35-binding site.", "Interestingly, his dystrophin mRNA was shown to completely lack exon 38 (exon 38- transcript). As the exon 38- transcript coded for a truncated dystrophin protein, this exon skipping was determined to be a modifying factor of his phenotype. In an in vivo splicing assay, a hybrid minigene encoding exon 38 with the 4-bp deletion was shown to induce complete exon 38 skipping, confirming the deleted region as a splicing enhancer sequence. Site-directed mutagenesis of the deleted sequence showed that the complete exon 38 skipping was caused by mutation of the third nucleotide position of the deletion (C5436), whereas mutations at the other three nucleotide positions induced partial exon skipping.", "Our results underline the potential of understanding the regulation of exonic splicing enhancer sequences and exon skipping therapy for treatment of Duchenne's muscular dystrophy." ]

We present five patients with a diagnosis of BMD. First, two identical twins, with a deletion of exon 48 of the dystrophin gene, who experienced prominent muscle cramps from the age of three. The histopathological examination of muscle biopsies of these two twins revealed only very slight muscle fiber alterations. Second, two brothers who displayed marked, unusual intrafamilial variability of the clinical picture as well as showing a new point mutation in the dystrophin gene. And finally, a fifth boy who displayed a new point mutation in the dystrophin gene. Although he was clinically asymptomatic at the age of 15 and muscle biopsy only showed very minor myopathic signs, serum Creatine Kinase (CK) levels had been considerably elevated for years. Taken together, these cases add to the spectrum of marked discrepancies in clinical, histopathological and molecular genetic findings in BMD." ]

Case 1 suddenly developed dysarthria and right facial weakness at age 21. Cranial CT study disclosed a low density area in the left basal ganglia and internal capsule. Case 2 had a history of transient ischemic attack (TIA) at age 21. Five months after the TIA, he developed right hemiplegia and dysarthria, and a low density area in the corona radiate in left cerebral hemisphere was observed in cranial CT. These two cases showed the radiographic cardiomegaly with cardio thoracic ratio (CTR) of 72.8% and 66.6%, the decreased echocardiographic left ventricular ejection fraction below 20%, and the elevated titer of thrombin-anti-thrombin III complex (TAT) and D-dimer. The autopsy of Case 2 at age 26 disclosed the remarkable degeneration and fibrosis of myocardium and old ischemic lesion in the left cerebral frontal cortex.

[ "Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal muscle wasting disease that is characterized by muscle dystrophin deficiency. We report that intravenous (IV) infusion of an antisense oligonucleotide created an in-frame dystrophin mRNA from an out-of-frame DMD mutation (via exon skipping) which led to muscle dystrophin expression. A 10-year-old DMD patient possessing an out-of-frame, exon 20 deletion of the dystrophin gene received a 0.5 mg/kg IV infusion of an antisense 31-mer phosphorothioate oligonucleotide against the splicing enhancer sequence of exon 19. This antisense construct was administered at one-week intervals for 4 wk. No side effects attributable to infusion were observed. Exon 19 skipping appeared in a portion of the dystrophin mRNA in peripheral lymphocytes after the infusion. In a muscle biopsy one week after the final infusion, the novel in-frame mRNA lacking both exons 19 and 20 was identified and found to represent approximately 6% of the total reverse transcription PCR product. Dystrophin was identified histochemically in the sarcolemma of muscle cells after oligonucleotide treatment. These findings demonstrate that phosphorothioate oligonucleotides may be administered safely to children with DMD, and that a simple IV infusion is an effective delivery mechanism for oligonucleotides that lead to exon skipping in DMD skeletal muscles." ]

[ "Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD and BMD) are caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene (Xp21). In two-thirds of DMD/BMD cases, the mutation is a large deletion of one or several exons. We have established PGD for DMD/BMD using interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis on single nuclei from blastomeres for the detection of deletions of specific exons in the dystrophin gene. We performed PGD for two carrier females; one had a deletion of exons 45-50 (DMD), and the other had a deletion of exons 45-48 (BMD). An exon 45-specific probe was used in combination with probes for the X and Y centromeres. Using this straightforward approach, we can distinguish affected and unaffected male embryos as well as carrier female and normal female embryos. Three cycles were performed for each patient, which resulted in a pregnancy and the birth of a healthy girl. To the best of our knowledge, this approach for PGD has not been previously reported.

[ "Patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) are likely to suffer from cardiac insufficiency. Subclinical cardiac insufficiency may decompensate intraoperatively. During spinal surgery, recording of somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP) is the standard method of spinal cord monitoring. Assessment of SSEP has proven to be a highly prognostic measure of neurological outcome after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). In the case presented, scalp SSEP as response to stimulation of both median and tibial nerves were recorded during spinal surgery in a 15-year-old boy with DMD. The patient developed severe hypotension and circulatory collapse intraoperatively. SSEP were measured before, during and up to 3h after circulatory collapse. He was successfully resuscitated and fully recovered. Latencies of SSEP remained stable from all extremities whereas amplitudes significantly decreased during CPR, but recovered completely within 3h. The amplitudes of SSEP serve as a more sensitive marker for brain ischaemia than latencies.

[ "Muscular dystrophies are composed of a variety of genetic muscle disorders linked to different chromosomes and loci and associated with different gene mutations that lead to progressive muscle atrophy and weakness. Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy is frequently associated with partial and generalized epilepsy and congenital brain anomalies, including cobblestone complex and other neuronal migration defects. We report generalized convulsive epilepsy in a boy with normal brain magnetic resonance imaging and Duchenne muscular dystrophy with deletion of dystrophin gene, and we report absence epilepsy with normal brain magnetic resonance imaging in another boy with limb girdle muscular dystrophy with partial calpain deficiency. We, therefore, review coexisting muscular dystrophies and epilepsy in children. In addition to Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy, partial or generalized epilepsy has also been reported in the following types of muscular dystrophies, including Duchenne/Becker dystrophy, facioscapulohumeral dystrophy, congenital muscular dystrophy with partial and complete deficiency of laminin alpha2 (merosin) chain, and limb girdle muscular dystrophy with partial calpain deficiency." ]

[ "A 33-year-old man with BMD manifesting severe mental retardation is reported. This patient has mild pseudohypertrophy in his calf muscles and showed an elevation of creatine kinase (CK) level in the serum (2215 IU/L). He was diagnosed as autistic at the age of three. His intellectual level was estimated to be two years old in social intelligence and four months old in speech ability at the age of 33. However his muscle strength remains within the normal range. All of his three siblings have similar symptoms, such as severe mental retardation and elevated CK level in the serum (1735-3641 IU/L) and lack apparent muscular weakness. Gene analyses by multiplex PCR and Southern blotting showed all of the siblings had the deletion of exon 4 in the dystrophin gene. Pathological findings of a muscle biopsy specimen showed a mild irregular dystrophin stain of the muscle surface membrane. This is a rare familial case of Becker muscular dystrophy manifesting severe mental retardation with scarce muscular weakness." ]

[ "The histological workup of the myocardium of a patient with Duchenne muscular dystrophy and left ventricular hypertrabeculation/noncompaction (LVHT) revealed an extremely thin left ventricular wall and a noncompacted layer double in size compared to the compacted layer. Within the compacted layer islets of fibrous tissue predominated, surrounded by areas of myxoid appearance hardly producing collagen, and occasionally normal or dystrophic cardiomyocytes. The noncompacted layer consisted largely of intact cardiomyocytes rarely intermingled with collagen-producing, fibrous tissue.

Since 1984, we experienced nine fatal cases of tracheo-arterial fistula among 60 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients who underwent a tracheostomy. Representative cases included a patient with lordosis (Case 8), in whom the fistula was located in the brachiocephalic artery close to the trachea, and another with severe scoliosis (Case 9), which caused the aorta to compress the trachea. Such anatomical changes can be the cause of a fistula between the trachea and brachiocephalic artery. The anatomical locations between the trachea and brachiocephalic artery are modified by thoracic deformities in DMD patients, and should be confirmed using computed tomography (CT) prior to a tracheostomy procedure. Further, during such a procedure, the tracheal stoma must be placed in a location clearly away from the arteries, and should be followed by regular post-operative examinations using CT and careful management to avoid a tracheo-arterial fistula." ]

We previously described a technique of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation to provide respiratory support during gastrostomy tube placement in such patients, but this technique had risks and limitations. In this case report, we examine two alternative techniques we used to provide respiratory support successfully to patients with severe muscular dystrophy and malnutrition who underwent percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube placement.

[ "We present a case of a 39-year-old man with Becker muscular dystrophy and severe congestive cardiac failure. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed subendocardial late gadolinium enhancement, similar to that seen in myocardial infarction. He had no risk factors for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease and coronary angiography was normal. We propose that regional subendocardial myocardial fibrosis which has been described histologically in the cardiomyopathy associated with Becker muscular dystrophy may resemble previous infarction at contrast enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging." ]
