Arranged in order of neuroanatomic localization, these include motor neuron diseases (eg, spinal muscular atrophy), neuropathies (eg, congenital hypomyelinating neuropathies), disorders of the neuromuscular junction (eg, congenital myasthenic syndrome), and muscle diseases. Major categories of muscle disease in infancy include congenital myopathies, congenital muscular dystrophies, congenital myotonic dystrophies, and glycogen storage diseases. Congenital myopathies and congenital muscular dystrophies are the subjects of this chapter.
