We report on the clinical, pathological, and genetic features of 7 patients with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) from three Japanese families. The mean age of onset was 9.7 Β± 3.1 years (mean Β± SD), and loss of ambulance occurred at 38.5 Β± 2.1 years. Muscle atrophy was predominant in
