The variable clinical courses of three cases of congenital fiber type disproportion (CFTD) over a period of 10 years are presented. All showed improvement in early childhood, but subsequently, varying degrees of deterioration were noted: specifically, marked deterioration in case 2 and decreased muscle strength in case 3. Maximal motor function levels were attained differently among the cases. Histological findings included type 1 fiber hypotrophy and increased internal nuclei in common in all cases. Fine structural changes, such as patchy areas of myofibrillar degeneration, were noted in cases 1 and 2 (second biopsy), and cytoplasmic bodies were seen in case 2 (second biopsy). Myotubes were noted in case 3. The degree of cyto-architectural changes did not correlate with clinical severity. The heterogeneity of CFTD is also discussed.
本文报告了3例先天性纤维类型比例失调(CFTD)患者在10年期间的不同临床病程。所有患者在幼儿期均有改善,但随后出现了不同程度的恶化:具体而言,病例2出现明显恶化,病例3肌肉力量下降。不同病例达到最大运动功能水平的情况不同。组织学检查结果包括所有病例均常见的1型纤维萎缩和内部细胞核增多。病例1和病例2(第二次活检)出现了细微结构变化,如肌原纤维变性的片状区域,病例2(第二次活检)可见胞质体。病例3可见肌管。细胞结构变化的程度与临床严重程度无关。本文还讨论了CFTD的异质性。
