Abstract
A class of genetically based congenital myopathies known as nemaline myopathies is defined by the development of nemaline rods within muscle fibers. We present a case involving an eight-year-old boy who presented with a history of delayed motor development, proximal muscle weakness, and neck flexor weakness. Muscle enzymes were normal, and electrophysiological studies revealed a myopathic pattern. Nemaline myopathy (NM) was diagnosed with the help of clinical exome sequencing, which showed a compound heterozygous mutation with a novel variant in the nebulin (NEB) gene.
