EP 4: When to suspect HSPB8 Myopathy (MFM13)? Intro for clinicians

In this episode, we explore the key clinical features of HSPB8 Myopathy - an ultra-rare, autosomal dominant, progressive muscle-wasting condition. With fewer than 30 documented cases, awareness among clinicians is limited. We discuss when to suspect HSPB8 Myopathy, what signs to look for, and why genetic testing is essential for diagnosis.

If you're a healthcare professional working with patients experiencing progressive weakness, frequent falls, foot drop, or balance issues, especially in early to mid-adulthood, this episode is for you.
