Resumos

Os autores relatam o primeiro caso de distrofia muscular progressiva congênita tipo Fukuyama descrito no Brasil, comprovado pelos achados clínicos e exames complementares. É dada ênfase à presença de retrações fibrotendinosas precoces e envolvimento do sistema nervoso central, o que constitui a característica fundamental da afecção. A moléstia é muito freqüente no Japão e pouco descrita em outros países. A etiopatogenia ainda não está definida.

The authors report the first Fukuyama type congenital progressive muscular dystrophy case described in Brazil, and confirmed through clinical findings and complementary tests. Emphasis is given to the presence of early fibro-tendinous retractions and impairment of the central nervous system, which constitute the fundamental characteristics of this affection. This disease is very common in Japan but very seldom described in other countries. Its etiopa-thogeny has not yet been defined.

SUMMARY

The authors report the first Fukuyama type congenital progressive muscular dystrophy case described in Brazil, and confirmed through clinical findings and complementary tests. Emphasis is given to the presence of early fibro-tendinous retractions and impairment of the central nervous system, which constitute the fundamental characteristics of this affection. This disease is very common in Japan but very seldom described in other countries. Its etiopa-thogeny has not yet been defined.
