Muscular dystrophies due to reduced glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan have emerged as a common group of conditions, now referred to as dystroglycanopathies. The phenotypic severity of dystroglycanopathy patients is extremely variable. Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type C (MDDGC) is the mildest clinical spectrum. It is late onset limb-girdle muscular dystrophy with no associated brain or eye involvement.
