GYG1: A distal myopathy with polyglucosan bodies

Abstract Mutations in glycogenin‐1 (GYG1) cause an adult‐onset polyglucosan body myopathy. We report here a patient presenting with late‐onset distal myopathy. We wish to highlight this rare clinical phenotype of GYG1‐related myopathy and the histological clues leading to its diagnosis.
