👉 Diplospondylism is a rare genetic disorder that affects the spine. It results from mutations in the gene encoding for the dystrophin protein, which plays a critical role in muscle and cartilage function. The mutation causes an abnormal distribution of dystrophin within the cell membrane and leads to increased stress on the cells, leading to degeneration and destruction. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, and difficulty walking, as well as decreased mobility and flexibility. Treatment options for diplospondylism
