At present, the genetic classification is becoming too complex, since the acronym LGMD has also been used for a number of other myopathic disorders with overlapping phenotypes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It usually presents within the first decade of life. The most common presenting complaint is primarily myalgia, followed by ‘rippling muscles’ and proximal muscle weakness [ 68 ]. [content.iospress.com]

Patients with an onset in the early teens, show a more severe phenotype with a rapid disease course, while adult onset patients present a slower course. [archive.org]

  Some of the topics covered in the book are the genetic aspects of liver disease connected with jaundice; development of the concept of thalassemia as a hemoglobinopathy; bilirubin metabolism; description of hemolytic jaundice; description of hyperbilirubinemia [books.google.de]

• Muscle Weakness

  weakness with childhood onset, resulting in gait abnormalities and scapular winging. [genecards.org]

  The distribution of weakness includes a limb-girdle pattern, with shoulder and hip girdle muscle involvement; a humeroperoneal pattern, with predominantly triceps, biceps, and peroneal muscles weakness; or a distal pattern, with distal weakness in the [doi.org]

  LGMDIC is characterized by an onset usually in the first decade, a mild-to-moderate proximal muscle weakness, calf hypertrophy, positive Gower sign, and variable muscle cramps after exercise. [archive.org]

  Heterogeneity is seen between subtypes in presenting complaint, most but not all, experience proximal muscle weakness or myalgia. [content.iospress.com]
