Congenital myopathy with internal nuclei and atypical cores is a rare genetic skeletal muscle disease characterized by neonatal hypotonia, distal more than proximal muscle weakness, progressive exercise intolerance with prominent myalgias, and mild-to-moderate overall motor impairment with preserved ambulation.
