The following summary is from Orphanet, a European reference portal for information on rare diseases and orphan drugs.Orpha Number: 266Disease definitionAutosomal dominant limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 1A (LGMD1A) is a subtype of autosomal dominant limb girdle muscular dystrophy characterized by an adult onset of proximal shoulder and hip girdle weakness (that later progresses to include distal weakness), nasal speech and dysarthria. Other frequent findings include tightened heel cords, reduced deep-tendon reflexes and elevated creatine kinase serum levels. Respiratory failure, as well as mild facial weakness and dysphagia, may also be observed.Visit the Orphanet disease page for more resources.
