MUSCULAR DYSTROPHIES 331 1. Pseudohyperiroj^hic Type (Duchenne, 1849).—Semmola, in1834, and Costa and Gioja, in 1836, antedated Duchenne in describingthese cases, but pictures of earlier centuries give evidence of its pres-ence. It is the type most frequently observed. It is more commonin males (3 to 1), and usually begins during childhood. An hereditaryform is very frequent. The parents first notice a certain clumsinessin the gait of the children, then the position of the body is peculiar.
