abstract：INTRODUCTION:Nemaline myopathy is a rare disorder characterized by skeletal muscle weakness of varying severity and onset, with the presence of nemaline rods on muscle biopsy. Congenital nemaline body myopathy due to mutations in TNNT1 has hitherto only been described as a result of a single founder mutation in patient...
