Description

Almost all boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) are unable to walk between the ages of 7 and 12. When adolescence arrives, they need help for any activity involving the upper limbs, lower limbs or trunk. Later, important organs such as the heart or lungs begin to fail, leading to respiratory failure and death of the patient at the early age of 40 years.There are many doubts that arise when you have a child with DMD: What are the symptoms that my child will have to face; if I have more children, will they inherit the disease; what are the possible treatments; is there hope or is all lost; what are the current avenues of research?This book attempts to resolve all these doubts, delving into the anatomo-pathological and pathophysiological origin of the disease.
