Abstract

Muscle biopsy was used to attempt determination of carrier status in mothers and maternal relatives of patients with severe neonatal centronuclear (myotubular) myopathy, an X-linked recessive disorder. We report findings from muscle biopsies of 3 mothers, one an obligate carrier. All biopsies showed abnormalities of nonspecific character. Whether such abnormalities assist in defining carrier status is uncertain. A more specific tissue marker for this disorder is required before muscle biopsy will facilitate carrier identification.
