Shoulder girdle muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 96533
- •Concept ID:
- C0427063
- •
- Finding
The shoulder, or pectoral, girdle is composed of the clavicles and the scapulae. Shoulder-girdle weakness refers to lack of strength of the muscles attaching to these bones, that is, lack of strength of the muscles around the shoulders.
Delayed ability to walk- MedGen UID:
- 66034
- •Concept ID:
- C0241726
- •
- Finding
A failure to achieve the ability to walk at an appropriate developmental stage. Most children learn to walk in a series of stages, and learn to walk short distances independently between 12 and 15 months.
Myopathy- MedGen UID:
- 10135
- •Concept ID:
- C0026848
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A disorder of muscle unrelated to impairment of innervation or neuromuscular junction.
Scoliosis- MedGen UID:
- 11348
- •Concept ID:
- C0036439
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
The presence of an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine.
Joint laxity- MedGen UID:
- 39439
- •Concept ID:
- C0086437
- •
- Finding
Lack of stability of a joint.
Proximal muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 113169
- •Concept ID:
- C0221629
- •
- Finding
A lack of strength of the proximal muscles.
Neck muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 66808
- •Concept ID:
- C0240479
- •
- Finding
Decreased strength of the neck musculature.
Flexion contracture- MedGen UID:
- 83069
- •Concept ID:
- C0333068
- •
- Anatomical Abnormality
A flexion contracture is a bent (flexed) joint that cannot be straightened actively or passively. It is thus a chronic loss of joint motion due to structural changes in muscle, tendons, ligaments, or skin that prevents normal movement of joints.
Facial palsy- MedGen UID:
- 87660
- •Concept ID:
- C0376175
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Facial nerve palsy is a dysfunction of cranial nerve VII (the facial nerve) that results in inability to control facial muscles on the affected side with weakness of the muscles of facial expression and eye closure. This can either be present in unilateral or bilateral form.
Congenital muscular dystrophy- MedGen UID:
- 147063
- •Concept ID:
- C0699743
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) is a heterogeneous group of neuromuscular disorders with onset at birth or infancy characterized by hypotonia, muscle wasting, weakness or delayed motor milestones. The group includes myopathies with abnormalities at different cellular levels: the extracellular matrix (MDC1A, UCMD; see these terms), the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex (alphadystroglycanopathies, integrinopathies see these terms), the endoplasmic reticulum (rigid spine syndrome [RSMD1], and the nuclear envelope (LMNA-related CMD; [L-CMD] and Nesprin-1-related CMD; see these terms).
Increased variability in muscle fiber diameter- MedGen UID:
- 336019
- •Concept ID:
- C1843700
- •
- Finding
An abnormally high degree of muscle fiber size variation. This phenotypic feature can be observed upon muscle biopsy.
Neonatal hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 412209
- •Concept ID:
- C2267233
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Muscular hypotonia (abnormally low muscle tone) manifesting in the neonatal period.
Respiratory insufficiency due to muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 812797
- •Concept ID:
- C3806467
- •
- Finding
Mildly elevated creatine kinase- MedGen UID:
- 342469
- •Concept ID:
- C1850309
- •
- Finding
Decreased fetal movement- MedGen UID:
- 68618
- •Concept ID:
- C0235659
- •
- Finding
An abnormal reduction in quantity or strength of fetal movements.
- Abnormality of limbs
- Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
- Abnormality of prenatal development or birth
- Abnormality of the musculoskeletal system
- Abnormality of the nervous system
- Abnormality of the respiratory system
