Myotonia congenita is a muscular disease characterized by myotonia, hypertrophy, and stiffness. It
is inherited as either autosomal dominant or recessive known as Thomsen and Becker diseases, respectively.

Identification and Functional Characterization of CLCN1 Mutations Found in Nondystrophic Myotonia Patients
(2016)
Mutations in the gene coding for the skeletal muscle Cl− channel (CLCN1) lead to dominant or recessive myotonia. Here, we identified and characterized CLCN1 mutations in Costa Rican patients, who had been clinically diagnosed ...
