Abstract

A 5 year-old boy had non-progressive myopathy since 2 years of age. Muscle enzymes were normal. Electromyography showed a myopathic feature. Prominantly disseminated nemaline bodies and predominant type I muscle fibers were found in muscle biopsy specimen. The clinical and morphological findings supported the existence of a rare form of congenital myopathy.
