Because of the very similar clinical presentation, it is likely that the MMD3 protein may be involved in a common pathway which dysferlin, which will help to elucidate the pathological mechanisms in both diseases. [jain-foundation.org]

Management and treatment No definitive treatments for MM exist and management is mainly supportive. [orpha.net]
Prognosis
Prognosis Progression is variable with some patients remaining fairly stable with distal weakness, while others can have a more aggressive pattern involving both proximal and distal muscles. [orpha.net]
Prognosis The prognosis for people with muscular dystrophy varies according to the type and progression of the disorder. [360oandp.com]
The prognosis for individuals with a myopathy varies. Some individuals have a normal life span and little or no disability. For others, however, the disorder may be progressive, severely disabling, life-threatening, or fatal. [wikidoc.org]
Etiology
Etiology MM is caused by mutations in the DYSF gene (2p13), which encodes dysferlin. The latter orchestrates skeletal muscle membrane repair and has also been associated with myogenesis, angiogenesis and microtubule dynamics. [orpha.net]
