• Cariomyopathy and skeletal myopathy

• Sudden cardiac death

• Cardiac problem as a common cause of death

Cariomyopathy and skeletal myopathy coexist in: Head

• Dystrophinopathies (Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Becker muscular dystrophy)

• Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

• Myotubular muscular dystrophy

• Myotonic dystrophy

• Proximal myotonic myopathy

• Myoadenylate deaminase deficiency

• Glycogenosis type II, III, IV, VII and IX

• Mitochondriopathy (such as Leigh encephalomyopathy and some cases of ragged red fiber-associated myopathy)

• Desminopathy

• Nemaline myopathy

• Central core disease

• Multicore myopathy,

• Congenital fiber-type disproportion myopathy

• McLeod syndrome and Bethlem Myopathy

• Emery-Deifuss muscular dystrophy

• Polysaccharidosis

• Beta-oxidation defects

• Lipid transport defects such as Carnitine deficiency

• Barth syndrome (X-linked cardioskeletal myopathy and neutropenia)

• Inclusion body myositis

• Chronic alcoholic myopathy

• Familial cardioneuromyopathy with hyaline masses and nemaline rods

Sudden cardiac death can occurs in: Head

• Myotonic dystrophy (adult type)

• Emery-Deifuss muscular dystrophy (the usual cause of death)

Cardiac problem as a common cause of death: Head

• Myotonic dystrophy (adult type)

• Emery-Deifuss muscular dystrophy (the usual cause of death)
