Late-onset distal crystallinopathy
A rare genetic disease with characteristics of adult-onset myofibrillar myopathy variably associated with cardiomyopathy and/or posterior pole cataracts. Patients typically present progressive proximal and distal muscle weakness and wasting of lower and upper limbs, often with velopharyngeal involvement including dysphagia, dysphonia and ventilatory insufficiency. Electromyography shows myopathic features and muscle biopsy reveals myofibrillar myopathy changes. Caused by heterozygous mutation in the alpha-B-crystallin gene (CRYAB) on chromosome 11q23.
