Abstract: Neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) encompass a variety of ailments from muscular dystrophies to ataxias, in the course of which the functioning of the muscles is eventually either directly or indirectly impaired. The clinical diagnosis of a particular NMD is not always straightforward due to the clinical and genetic heterogeneity of the disorders under investigation. Traditional diagnostic tools such as electrophysiological tests and muscle biopsies are both invasive and painful methods, causing the patients to be reluctant. Next-generation sequencing, on the other hand, emerged as an alternative method for the diagnosis of NMDs, both with its minimally invasive nature and fast processing period. In this study, clinical exome sequencing (CES) was applied to a cohort of 70 probands in Turkey, 44 of whom received a final diagnosis, representing a diagnostic rate of 62.9%. Out of the 50 mutations identified to be causal, 26 were novel in the known 27 NMD genes. Two probands had complex/blended phenotypes. Molecular confirmation of clinical diagnosis of NMDs has a major prognostic impact and is crucial for the management and the possibility of alternative reproductive options. CES, which has been increasingly adopted to diagnose single-gene disorders, is also a powerful tool for revealing the etiopathogenesis in complex/blended phenotypes, as observed in two probands of the cohort.
