X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a congenital muscular disease characterized by severe hypotonia and generalized muscle weakness, leading in most cases to early postnatal death.

X-linked recessive myotubular myopathy (XLMTM; MTM1) is a severe neonatal disorder often causing perinatal death of the affected males. The responsible gene, designated MTM1, was localized to proximal Xq28 and recently isolated. The characterization of MTM1 allowed us to screen for causing mutations

We report on a 10-year-old boy with a normal karyotype and a chromosome 13q14 deletion of the retinoblastoma gene (RB1) by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). He showed subtle signs of overgrowth, including macrocephaly, hepatomegaly, and inguinal hernia. The boy also had cryptorchism and mil
