Distal arthrogryposis (DA) is a distinct group of syndromes with congenital contractures primarily involving the hands and feet, which often is associated with abnormal facies. To date, 10 different DA syndromes have been characterized and classified. DA2A and DA2B are also referred to as Freeman-Sheldon syndrome and Sheldon-Hall syndrome, respectively. The most of causative genes have implicated proteins of the contractile apparatus of the fast-twitch myofibers.

Title
MET mutation causes muscular dysplasia and arthrogryposis.
Lethal congenital contractural syndrome (LCCS) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by congenital nonprogressive joint contractures with a severe form of arthrogryposis. LCCS is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. It has a worldwide incidence, but it is more common in isolated populations, such as Finland and the Bedouin community in Israel. Several mutations associated with LCCS have been reported.

Description
The congenital myopathies are a group of genetic muscle disorders characterised clinically by hypotonia and weakness, usually from birth, and a static or slowly progressive clinical course. Congenital myopathies are mainly defined by the predominant histopathological features which include nemaline rods, central cores, multiple minicores, central nuclei, and selective hypotrophy of type 1 fibres. Based on these features, individual congenital myopathies such as nemaline myopathy, central core disease, multi-minicore disease, centronuclear myopathy, and congenital fiber type disproportion were reported. Over the past decade there have been major advances in defining the genetic basis of the majority of congenital myopathy subtypes. However the relationship between each congenital myopathy, defined on histological grounds, and the genetic cause is complex. Many of the congenital myopathies are due to mutations in more than one gene, and mutations in the same gene can cause different muscle pathologies.
