RESUMEN: Las distrofias musculares son un grupo de trastornos hereditarios, degenerativos, progresivos del músculo estriado, cuya manifestación cardinal es la debilidad de la musculatura estriada esquelética. En esta revisión se describirá conceptualmente la clasificación, la patogénesis, las manifestaciones clínicas, el diagnóstico diferencial y el enfoque terapéutico de las distrofias musculares más comunes que afectan al paciente adulto.
