Preferred Label : myotonia congenita;
MeSH definition : Inherited myotonic disorders with early childhood onset MYOTONIA. Muscular hypertrophy
is common and myotonia may impair ambulation and other movements. It is classified
as Thomsen (autosomal dominant) or Becker (autosomal recessive) generalized myotonia
mainly based on the inheritance pattern. Becker type is also clinically more severe.
An autosomal dominant variant with milder symptoms and later onset is known as myotonia
levior. Mutations in the voltage-dependent skeletal muscle chloride channel are associated
with the disorders.;
