Mutations in the LMNA gene, which codes for lamins A and C, proteins of the nuclear lamina, are responsible for a wide spectrum of pathologies, including a group specifically affecting striated skeletal and cardiac muscles, with cardiac involvement being life-threatening. At the skeletal muscle level, a wide phenotypic spectrum has been described, ranging from severe forms of congenital muscular dystrophy to less severe forms of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. The great clinical variability of striated muscle laminopathies, both inter- and intra-familial, can be observed in the age of onset, severity of signs and progression of muscle and heart involvement. To date, more than 400 LMNA mutations have been associated with striated muscle laminopathies (www.umd.be/LMNA/), highlighting strong clinical and genetic heterogeneity. A few recurrent mutations linked to a difference in severity hav
