[Hereditary Muscle Disorders].

Hereditary muscle diseases encompass various types of muscular dystrophies and myopathies, many of which are rare and difficult to treat. However, with advancements in research, we are entering a new era in which many hereditary muscle diseases are becoming treatable. Consequently, diagnosing hereditary muscle diseases is increasingly important to ensure that treatable conditions are not overlooked. This article highlights recent advancements in the treatment of various muscle diseases, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy, for which a new drug has been approved. Looking ahead, we hope to see an increase in the number of researchers and clinicians dedicated to muscle disease research and treatment, leading to a deeper understanding of disease pathology and the development of effective therapies.
