How is BMD different from DMD?

BMD is less severely disabling then DMD. An arbitary means of distinguishing the two disorders depends on whether the affected person can still walk at age 16 years. Muscle biopsy tends to show more or less severe changes, related to the severity of disability. Since the discovery that dystrophin is defective in DMD and BMD, but more severely defective in DMD, examination of dystrophin in muscle biopsy samples can be used to distinguish them.

Adolescence or adulthood Progression:
Disease progresses slowly and with variability but will affect all voluntary muscles. Survival well into mid to late adulthood

X-linked recessive (females are carriers Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD) is one of the nine types of muscular dystrophy and is considered the more mild cousin of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, the most common inherited childhood lethal disorder of humankind. BMD disease affects approximately 1 in 30,000 male births regardless of race or ethnicity, and there are an estimated 100,000 BMD patients worldwide.

裘馨氏肌肉萎縮症 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by an altered gene found on the X-chromosome, so the condition usually affects only boys. In some cases, the disorder appears 'out of the blue', following a new mutation in the unfertilised egg. In others, DMD is inherited from a carrier mother, who is usually unaffected herself. A carrier mother has a one-in-four chance of having an affected son and a one-in-four chance of having a carrier daughter.

DMD及BMD常見問題總結



肌肉無力 關節角度不足 生活功能逐漸降低 心肺功能逐漸受影響 情緒困擾 脊椎變形
復健治療



預防關節變形 主動運動 延長行走時間 輪椅的使用 體重控制 預防脊椎變形 心肺能力訓練
運動的項目

牽拉運動
運動強度: 避免過量及抗力運動 避免代償運動 若經過一夜休息仍覺得酸痛表示運動太強 烈


Calf muscles initially enlarge (an attempt by the body to compensate for loss of muscle strength), but the enlarged muscle tissue is eventually replaced by fat and connective tissue (pseudohypertrophy). Cardiomyopathy may occur, but the development of congestive heart failure or arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) is rare.

Symptoms: Generalized weakness and muscle wasting affecting limb and trunk muscles first. Calves often enlarged. Almost identical to Duchenne but often much less severe. Can be significant heart involvements.
