AB It  is  a  congenital  myopathy  associated  with  proximal  extremity  weaknesses,  external  ophthalmoplegia,  and  eventual  respiratory  failure.  In  the  neonatal  subgroup,  severe  muscular  hypotonia,  delayed  motor  development,  generalized  muscle  weakness,  and  lateral  amyotrophy  that  may  progress  or  remain  stable  are  characteristics  of  this  disorder.  One  of  the  subgroups  in  this  medical  condition  is  called  “Central  Core  Diseases”  and  a  close  susceptibility  to  malignant  hyperthermia  has  been  suggested.
