ABSTRACT
Congenital fiber type disproportion (CFTD) is a form of congenital myopathy characterized by histologic findings of the smallness of type 1 fiber and type 1 fiber predominance. It is usually associated with hypotonia and motor weakness of the limb muscles at birth or the neonatal period. We report a 6-year-old girl with limb weakness and ophthalmoplegia, whose muscle pathology showed the classic pattern of CFTD without any other abnormality.
