Myofibrillar myopathy
Myofibrillar myopathies are diseases that cause similar findings of affected muscle when viewed under a microscope.[3]
- Desminopathy
- Myotilinopathy

Other muscular dystrophies
Congenital myopathies
- Nemaline myopathy
- Central core myopathy
- Centronuclear myopathy

- Multi/minicore myopathy
- Cylindrical spirals myopathy
Metabolic diseases
Mutations causing defects in metabolism can cause muscle damage due to inadequate energy for muscles or accumulation of waste products.[4]
Mitochondrial myopathy
Mitochondrial myopathies are diseases caused by mutations related to mitochondria, and thus are generally inherited from the mother with variable expressivity due to heteroplasmy.
- Kearns–Sayre syndrome
- Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS)
- Myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERRF)
- Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) deficiency
- Mitochondrial complex I deficiency
- Mitochondrial complex II deficiency
- Mitochondrial complex III deficiency (cytochrome b deficiency)
- mtDNA deletion
Glycogen storage disease
Glycogen storage diseases (GSD) are a group of diseases caused by mutations related to glycogen metabolism.
- GSD type II (Pompe disease)
- GSD type V (McArdle disease)
- GSD type VII (Tarui disease)
- GSD type XI (Lactate dehydrogenase deficiency)
- GSD type X (Phosphoglycerate mutase deficiency)
- Phosphoglycerate kinase deficiency
Fat oxidation defect
- Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency
- Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency
- Medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency
- Long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency
- Very long-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency
Other metabolic myopathies
Inflammatory myopathies
Other diseases of muscle
Affecting nerve
