INFORMATION ON MYOPATHY:-

Myopathy may be defined as a neurological disorder of the skeletal muscle. Myopathy can be acquired or inherited, and can occur at birth or later in life. Myopathy can result from endocrine disordeabolic disorders, muscle infection or inflammation, drugs, and mutations in genes.

SYNONYMS OF MYOPATHY:-

1. Centronuclear Myopathy
2. Myopathy, Myotubular
3. Myotubular Myopathy, X-linked
4. Myotubular Myopathy Type 1 (MTM1)
5. X-linked Myotubular Myopathy
6. X-linked Congenital Recessive Muscle Hypotrophy with Central Nuclei
7. X-linked Recessive Myotubular Myopathy
8. Autosomal Recessive Centronuclear Myopathy
9. Autosomal Dominant Centronuclear Myopathy
10. X-linked Recessive Centronuclear Myopathy

CAUSES OF MAYOPATHY:-

The main consequences which leads to the development of Myopathy are:-

1. Hereditary.
2. Response of inflammatory.
3. Endocrine disorder.

SYMPTOMS OF MYOPATHY:-

1. Weakness of arms.
2. Weakness legs, and trunk,
3. Drooping of upper eyelids.
4. Facial weakness.
5. Lack of reflexes in the affected muscles.

DIAGNOSIS OF MYOPATHY:-

Clinically Myopathy can be identified by:-

1. Muscles biopsy.
2. Blood test.
3. Genetic testing.
4. Electromyography.

TREATMENT OF MYOPATHY:-

Treatments for the Myopathy depend on the occurrence of the disease or condition and specific causes. Supportive and symptomatic treatment may be the only treatment available for mayopathy.
Treatment for mayopathy disorder may include drug therapy, such as immunosuppressive, physical therapy, bracing to support weakened muscles, and surgery if symptoms do not decreased.
