MDC1C is a potentially severe form of CMD that is characterized by diminished muscle tone (hypotonia) and muscle weakness at birth. Affected infants may also develop respiratory and feeding difficulties. Respiratory difficulties are progressive and often cause breathing insufficiency (respiratory failure).

In most cases, muscular dystrophy (MD) runs in families. It usually develops after inheriting a faulty gene from one or both parents. MD is caused by mutations (alterations) in the genes responsible for healthy muscle structure and function.

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, type 2E is an autosomal recessive, pan-ethnic disorder that is caused by pathogenic variants in the gene SGCB. This form of muscular dystrophy presents with weakness of the pelvic and shoulder girdle in childhood, with symptoms usually present by the age of 12 years.
Definition. The myopathies are neuromuscular disorders in which the primary symptom is muscle weakness due to dysfunction of muscle fiber. Other symptoms of myopathy can include include muscle cramps, stiffness, and spasm.
Proximal myopathy presents as symmetrical weakness of proximal upper and/or lower limbs. There is a broad range of underlying causes including drugs, alcohol, thyroid disease, osteomalacia, idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), hereditary myopathies, malignancy, infections and sarcoidosis.
Deconditioning=diminished ability or perceived ability to perform tasks involved in person's usual activities of daily living. 728.2=Use this code for muscle wasting and atrophy due to disuse, where the condition is not classified elsewhere.
359.1 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of hereditary progressive muscular dystrophy. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
Muscular dystrophy (MD) is a group of more than 30 inherited diseases. They all cause muscle weakness and muscle loss. Some forms of MD appear in infancy or childhood. Others may not appear until middle age or later. The different types can vary in whom they affect, which muscles they affect, and what the symptoms are. All forms of MD grow worse as the person's muscles get weaker. Most people with MD eventually lose the ability to walk.
Type 1 Excludes Notes - A type 1 Excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
There is no cure for muscular dystrophy. Treatments can help with the symptoms and prevent complications. They include physical and speech therapy, orthopedic devices, surgery, and medications. Some people with MD have mild cases that worsen slowly. Others cases are disabling and severe.
Muscular dystrophy ( MD) encompasses a group of more than 30 genetic diseases characterized by progressive weakness and degeneration of the skeletal muscles that control movement.

A group of genetic degenerative muscle disorders affecting the muscles of the lower arms, hands, lower legs, and feet. A group of inherited progressive muscle disorders characterized by muscle weakness and eventual death of the muscle tissues. Examples include duchenne muscular dystrophy, becker's muscular dystrophy, ...
An autosomal dominant degenerative muscle disease characterized by slowly progressive weakness of the muscles of the face, upper-arm, and shoulder girdle. The onset of symptoms usually occurs in the first or second decade of life. Affected individuals usually present with impairment of upper extremity elevation. This tends to be followed by facial weakness, primarily involving the orbicularis oris and orbicularis oculi muscles.

A group of autosomal recessive and less frequently autosomal dominant muscular dystrophies affecting the muscles of the hips and shoulders.
A heterogeneous group of inherited myopathies, characterized by wasting and weakness of the skeletal muscle. They are categorized by the sites of muscle weakness; age of onset; and inheritance patterns. A heterogenous group of inherited muscular dystrophy that can be autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive.
