Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita due to congenital myasthenia.

L M Smit, P G Barth.   

Abstract

Decreased fetal movements may cause arthrogryposis multiplex congenita. Several distinct neuromuscular disorders may cause this syndrome, but congenital myasthenia has not previously been considered to be a possible cause. The authors report a case of congenital myasthenia gravis leading to arthrogryposis congenita.
