α-tropomyosin gene (TPM3) mutation in an infant with nemaline myopathy

Abstract

We report a case of neonatal nemaline myopathy with a de novo TPM3 mutation, which has been classified as a likely pathogenic mutation. With the expanding use of genetic testing in congenital myopathies, genotype-phenotype descriptions of novel variants are important to inform clinical care, diagnosis, genetic counseling, and management of disease.
