International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Scapuloperoneal muscular dystrophies are a group of genetically heterogeneous myopathies characterised by progressive weakness and wasting of scapular and anterior leg muscles. Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy is a classic scapuloperoneal muscular dystrophy associated with early contractures and cardiac arrhythmia, but other muscle disorders can also present with a scapuloperoneal phenotype.
