We are reporting a familial case of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) upon 5 out of 6 siblings from parents showing no evidence of muscular dystrophy. The pedigree of the family up to five generations did not reveal any known case in the past even though consanguinity was reported. The clinical observations revealed wheelchair bound or difficulties for walking in all affected subjects, due to muscular dystrophy involving mainly the pelvic girdle. Creatine phosphoKinase (CK) was higher than normal values in both affected children and their parents. The scanning of thigh showed in all patients, an atrophy of the quadriceps with fatty conversion. Molecular analysis was carried out, first using western blot, which revealed gammasacoglycan deficiency and second, by gene screening, which showed Del 525T mutation. This mutation is most widespread in arabo-berbères tribes including Touaregs. The present cases are in our knowledge the first reported in that part of Africa, south of Maghreb. We make a focus on histological and molecular bases of the LGMD.
