OBS

This poorly understood and probably heterogeneous syndrome includes several entities, although they have not been precisely delineated. Inheritance is usually autosomal-recessive, but sporadic cases are the most common. Autosomal-dominant families have also been described. Depending on the distribution of the predominant weakness, the disease has been variously described with such term as pelvifemoral, quadriceps, and scapuloperoneal types.
