Introduction to Limbgirdle Muscular Dystrophy LGMD

Limbgirdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of genetic disorders characterized by progressive weakness and wasting of the muscles around the hips and shoulders. This test is essential for diagnosing LGMD and understanding its genetic basis, enabling patients to receive appropriate management and support.

  • SGCA
  • SGCB
  • SGCD
  • SGCG
  • FKRP

This comprehensive analysis helps in confirming the diagnosis of LGMD and differentiating it from other muscular dystrophies.

This test is recommended for individuals exhibiting symptoms such as:

  • Progressive muscle weakness
  • Difficulty in lifting the arms or climbing stairs
  • Family history of muscular dystrophy
  • Genetic predisposition to LGMD

If you or a family member experience these symptoms, consider getting tested.
