Implication

Clinicians may recognize rimmed vacuoles to narrow myopathy differentials; leaves open refined genetic classification in future studies.

Distal myopathies

Provides an overview of the clinical, genetic, and pathological features of various distal myopathies, highlighting the common presence of rimmed vacuoles.

Cite This Study

Ikuya Nonaka (1999) conducted a review in Distal myopathies. Distal myopathies are a group of clinically and genetically distinct entities that often share common pathologic features of myopathic changes with rimmed vacuoles.
