congenital myasthenic syndrome 4C — Definition
Konjenital miyastenik sendrom 4C / congenital myasthenic syndrome 4C
Congenital miyastenic syndrome 4C is a genetic disorder that affects the structure or function of the acetylcholine receptor, located in the nerve-casing cavity (excisions). This condition is characterized by degradation in signal transmission, which causes weakness and fatigue in muscles. Symptoms often occur from birth or early childhood, and may include pitosis (eye cover lowness), ophthalmoplegia (restriction in eye movements) and face, weakness in the muscles of the limbs with neck.
Disease Definition
🔬 Disease Definition
Konjenital miyastenik sendrom tip 4C, nöromüsküler kavşakta sinyal iletimini bozan genetik bir hastalıktır. Genellikle çocuklukta başlar ve kas güçsüzlüğü ile karakterizedir.
🧬 Causes & Risk Factors
Otozomal resesif geçişlidir. Çoğunlukla COLQ genindeki mutasyonlardan kaynaklanır. Aile öyküsü önemli bir risk faktörüdür.
🩺 Symptoms & Signs
Proksimal kas güçsüzlüğü, pitozis, oftalmoparezi, yorgunlukla artan güçsüzlük, solunum sıkıntısı ve beslenme güçlüğü görülür.
📋 Diagnostic Methods
Klinik değerlendirme, elektromiyografi (tek lif EMG), genetik testler ve asetilkolin reseptör antikorlarının negatifliği ile tanı konur.
💊 Treatment Options
Asetilkolinesteraz inhibitörleri (örn. piridostigmin) ve 3,4-diaminopiridin kullanılır. Solunum desteği ve fizik tedavi gerekebilir.
⚠️ Complications
