Abstract
Hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure (HMERF) is characterized by early respiratory insufficiency which is inappropriate to the degree of limb muscle weakness. Recently, mutation in <i>TTN</i> gene was found in HMERF patients with the aid of gene sequencing. We describe the first case presenting with distal leg weakness and early respiratory failure confirmed by <i>TTN</i> gene mutation in Korea.
