Descriptor distrofia muscular de Emery-Dreifuss
Entry term(s) síndrome de Emery-Dreifus
Scope note: Grupo heterogéneo de distrofias musculares hereditarias sin afectación del sistema nervioso. Se caracteriza por ATROFIA MUSCULAR, DEBILIDAD MUSCULAR, CONTRACTURA de los codos, TENDÓN DE AQUILES y de los músculos cervicales posteriores, con o sin síntomas cardíacos. Hay varios PATRONES DE HERENCIA: ligada al cromosoma X (CROMOSOMA X), autosómica dominante (para el tipo asociado al gen LMNA, véase DISTROFIA MUSCULAR DE EMERY-DREIFUSS AUTOSÓMICA) y autosómica recesiva.

Scope note: A heterogenous group of inherited muscular dystrophy without the involvement of nervous system. The disease is characterized by MUSCULAR ATROPHY; MUSCLE WEAKNESS; CONTRACTURE of the elbows; ACHILLES TENDON; and posterior cervical muscles; with or without cardiac features. There are several INHERITANCE PATTERNS including X-linked (X CHROMOSOME), autosomal dominant (for LMNA-associated type see AUTOSOMAL EMERY-DREIFUSS MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY), and autosomal recessive gene mutations.
