Phenotypic Variability of <i>MEGF10</i> Variants Causing Congenital Myopathy: Report of Two Unrelated Patients from a Highly Consanguineous Population

Congenital myopathies are rare neuromuscular hereditary disorders that manifest at birth or during infancy and usually appear with muscle weakness and hypotonia. One of such disorders, early-onset myopathy, areflexia, respiratory distress, and dysphagia (EMARDD, OMIM: 614399, MIM: 612453), is a rare...
