✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Freeze‐fracture studies of erythrocytes from patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy revealed depletion of particles on both fracture faces of the plasma membrane. This study indicates that the structure of the erythrocyte plasma membrane is abnormal in Duchenne dystrophy and supports the concept that a generalized membrane abnormality is present in this disease.

In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), sphincter muscles tend to be clinically spared. However, urinary incontinence is occasionally reported, usually late in the course of the disease. We wished to determine the etiology of urinary dysfunction in patients with DMD. Seven boys with DMD and urinary dy
