AB  - Congenital  anomaly  of  an  ionic  channel  resulting  in  a  multisystemic  disease  with  anomalies  of  skeletal,  smooth,  and  cardiac  muscles.  May  cause  mental  deficiency  and  loss  of  hair.  The  more  obvious  features  are  muscle  rigidity  and  lack  of  muscle  relaxation  after  contraction.  Onset  occurs  during  early  adulthood.  However,  it  may  occur  at  any  age  and  is  extremely  variable  in  degree  of  severity.  Progression  of  the  disease  is  slow,  sometimes  evolving  over  50  to  60  years.  There  appear  to  be  at  least  two  forms.
