چکیده انگلیسی
We present the case of a young woman with worsening attacks of muscle pain and rhabdomyolysis beginning at age 14. Initial metabolic testing and electromyography revealed findings of a nonspecific myopathy. Diagnostic options were discussed among the members of a neurogenetics clinic team. Whole-exome sequencing was selected as a first tier test. This testing revealed a known disease causing mutation in the PYGM gene consistent with McArdle disease. We discuss the decision to use whole-exome sequencing in diagnostics and the rationale for making this our choice as a first-level test modality.
