DMD is an X-linked disease causing progressive muscle weakness and muscle fiber breakdown.
X-linked disorder with loss of dystrophin protein function.
Muscle weakness in late childhood, Gowers sign, elevated CK.
Deletions, duplications or point mutations in the DMD gene.
X-linked recessive.
DMD.
Affected boys and carrier mothers planning future pregnancies.
MLPA and DMD sequencing.
Maternal carrier testing and PGT-M are important options.
