Oculopharyngodistal myopathy (OPDM) is a rare, adult-onset hereditary muscle disease. People with OPDM present with progressive eye and throat (pharyngeal) problems and involvement of the muscles of the lower legs and arms. Symptoms may include eyelid drooping (ptosis), swallowing difficulty, hoarse and nasal voice, leg and arm weakness, as well as muscle wasting in the face and in the legs and arms. Many people have respiratory problems due to respiratory muscle weakness. In rare cases, there is also hearing loss, as well as severe weakness in muscles of the forearms and thighs. As the disease progresses, other muscles may be affected. A blood exam may show an increased creatine kinase level and an abnormal EMG. Inheritance may be autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive. The specific cause is still unknown.
MalaCards based summary : Oculopharyngodistal Myopathy, also known as opdm, is related to muscular dystrophy and myopathy, and has symptoms including facial paresis An important gene associated with Oculopharyngodistal Myopathy is GNE (Glucosamine (UDP-N-Acetyl)-2-Epimerase/N-Acetylmannosamine Kinase). Affiliated tissues include eye and tongue, and related phenotypes are high palate and ptosis OMIM : 57 Oculopharyngodistal myopathy (OPDM) is characterized by adult-onset of eye and facial muscle weakness, distal muscle weakness and atrophy, and pharyngeal involvement, resulting in dysphagia and dysarthria. There are variable manifestations of the disorder regarding muscle involvement and severity. Both autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant inheritance have been reported. OPDM is considered distinct from oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD; 164300), which is caused by mutation in the PABPN1 gene (602279) (summary by Durmus et al., 2011). (164310) |
