Abstract
The best known muscular dystrophies are X-linked dystrophinopathies. A clinically and genetically heterogeneous group presenting with weakness of the pelvic and shoulder girdles is that of the limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs). Sarcoglycanopathies (SGPs) are autosomal recessive LGMDs. We report a rare case of primary gamma-sarcoglycanopathy (SGP) which emphasizes the evolving concept of dystrophinopathy to sarco-glycanopathy.
