Nemaline myopathy is one of the congenital myopathy, which is characterized by histological findings of nemaline bodies (rods) and type 1 fiber hypotrophy and predominance. It can be classified into three forms according to the age of onset and clinical features: congenital form, childhood-onset form, and adult-onset form. We report an 18-year-old patient with generalized muscle weakness and dysmorphic features who was diagnosed as typical childhood-onset nemaline myopathy.
