Specialty Definition: MUSCULAR DISORDERS, ATROPHIC

DomainDefinition

Health

Disorders characterized by an abnormal reduction in muscle volume due to a decrease in the size or number of muscle fibers. Atrophy may result from diseases intrinsic to muscle tissue (e.g., muscular dystrophy) or secondary to peripheral nervous system diseases that impair innervation to muscle tissue (e.g., muscular atrophy, spinal).
