Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) is a heterogeneous group of disorders which is associated with more or less degrees of cerebral involvement. There are four separate entities within CMD nosology. Among these Fukuyama's CMD (FCMD) is highly prevalent in Japan, whereas the classic form with normal or subnormal intelligence, also known as the occidental type, covers the vast majority of cases in the West. We report a case of FCMD seen in a Turkish child.

Résumé:

RÉSUMÉ:

La dystrophic musculaire congénitale (DMC) est un groupe hétérogène de maladies qui sont associées à différents degrés d'atteinte cérébrale. La DMC en tant qu'entité nosologique comprend quatre entités séparées. Parmi celles-ci, la DMC de Fukuyama (DMCF) a une prévalence élevée au Japon, alors que la forme classique avec une intelligence normale ou subnormale, aussi connue comme étant la forme occidentale, couvre la grande majorité des cas identifiés dans l'hémisphère ouest. Nous rapportons un cas de DMCF observée chez un enfant turque.
