Dystrophinopathies Duchenne muscular dystrophy is much more than a disease of skeletal muscles. Dystrophin is also found in the heart, brain, and smooth muscle. Late-stage cardiac fibrosis can lead to output failure and pulmonary congestion, a common cause of death.uchenne muscular dystrophy clinically manifests in patients aged 3-7 years, with development of lordosis, a waddling gait, and the Gowers sign. Calf pseudohypertrophy follows 1-2 years later. Most patients are wheelchair bound by age 12 years.
