Abstract-Vorschau
Purpose: Muscular dystrophy type Becker-Kiener (BMD) represents an X-linked disease due to mutations in the dystrophin gene. Apart from skeletal myopathy, cardiac involvement with the development of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has been described, mainly based on echocardiographic studies. DCM is an important cause of mortality in these patients. The course of DCM can potentially be alleviated by timely onset of ade…
