Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness that begins from the proximal limb muscles. The disease is not congenital, with the age at onset of symptoms varying from early childhood to late adulthood. The primary distinction is between the autosomal dominant (LGMDD) and the autosomal recessive forms (LGMDR). According to the disease mechanisms, the LGMDs may be grouped as follows: dystrophin-dystroglycan complex defects, membrane defects, enzymatic, sarcomeric, and nuclear lamina.
