| Popis | Congenital myotonia is caused by mutations in the CLCN1 chloride channel gene. It can be inherited as either an autosomal dominant (Thomsen's myotonia) or a recessive (Becker's myotonia) trait.All the cases but one are sporadic, thus the majority of patients in our population have Becker's form of myotonia congenita. |
