| Duchenne's muscular d. |
the most common and severe type of pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy; chronic and progressive, it begins in early childhood. It is characterized by increasing weakness in the pelvic and shoulder girdles, with pseudohypertrophy of the muscles followed by atrophy, lordosis, and a peculiar swaying gait with the legs kept wide apart. It is transmitted as an X-linked trait, and affected individuals, predominantly males, rarely survive to maturity; death is usually due to respiratory weakness or heart failure. Called also Duchenne's d., Duchenne's or Duchenne-Griesinger disease, Erb's atrophy or Erb's d., and Zimmerlin's atrophy. Cf. Becker's muscular d.
