Among the LGMDR1 (calpainopathy), LGMDR2 (dysferlinopathy) and LGMDR3−6 (sarcoglycanopathy), the degree of latissimus dorsi involvement were correlated to the severity of periscapular and shoulder girdle muscles which was in contrast to our results [16–21]. Here, CAPN3 is linked to autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A.
