c.39974-11T > G variant consistently causes congenital arthrogryposis and persisting myopathy providing evidence that the metatranscript-only 213 to 217 exons impact muscle elasticity during early development and beyond. There is a recognizable pattern of muscle involvement, which is distinct from other myopathies and provides valuable clues for diagnostic work-up.
