A baby girl was noted to have severe swelling and discoloration of the left arm immediately after birth by cesarean section at 38 weeks’ gestation. Prenatal ultrasonography at 28 weeks had shown soft-tissue swelling of the left arm of undetermined cause. Examination showed swelling, cyanosis, and limited movement of the left arm, shoulder, and chest. Two areas of constriction were present at the wrist and proximal forearm, although brachial and radial pulses remained detectable by Doppler ultrasonography. MRI showed two fibrous bands extending through the deep fascia. What is the most likely diagnosis? Submit your answer and see how others responded:

A 54-year-old woman presented with a 4-month history of progressively worsening asthenia and falls and 5 days of dyspnea. On exam, there was also head drop and mild symmetric weakness of the proximal upper and lower limbs. The creatine kinase level was 373 U per liter (reference range, 24 to 173). Magnetic resonance imaging of the head and cervical spine was notable for fatty infiltration of the tongue and paravertebral muscles. What is the most likely disease category?
