Extractions: These is a relatively rare group of progressive, genetic diseases that gradually destroy muscle tissue. The most common childhood forms are Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy; both affect about one in every 3,000 male babies born. Less common forms of muscular dystrophy can affect both boys and girls. The muscular dystrophies are classified according to age at onset, rate of progression, heredity pattern and muscle groups affected. Symptoms vary with the type. The major forms of muscular dystrophy gradually weaken the muscles that control walking, manual dexterity and breathing. Other symptoms can include mental retardation and neurological and cardiac involvement. WHEN SHOULD I SUSPECT MY CHILD HAS MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY?

As the disease progresses, symptoms include increased weakness and loss of muscle mass and function. Eventually a person with muscular dystrophy needs to use a wheelchair to move around. Four clinical forms of the disease are recognized, based on pattern of inheritance, age when symptoms are first noted, and distribution of the muscles earliest involved. Microscopic abnormalities of skeletal muscle are found in each type. II Print Preview of Section In the Duchenne form of the disease, symptoms usually are noted before age five. The muscles first affected are those of the pelvis and trunk, resulting in spinal deformity and a waddling gait. Wasting of almost all muscle groups may be advanced by the late teens. Death may result from respiratory weakness or from involvement of the heart muscle. Because inheritance of this form is by an X-linked recessive mechanism, virtually all patients are boys (
