The clinical outcome study of dysferlinopathy (COS) is an international natural history study that recruited 197 patients with genetically confirmed dysferlinopathy. In the study 11 women reported a pregnancy in the last 12 months prior to or during the study. A total of 16 pregnancies with 10 live deliveries and 6 miscarriages were recorded at study visits. Delivery was by C-section with regional anaesthesia in half of cases. There were no major delivery problems or medical concerns with the neonates.
