What is AMC Miles
Matter?
*Arthrogryposis Mulitplex Congenita (AMC) is a rare muscle and joint
condition that occurs one in every 3,000 live births. Although those
numbers seem common, very few people are aware of AMC. The condition
involves curved or hooked joints, limited range of motion and multiple
joint contractures throughout the body at birth. There is no cure for AMC,
but treatments are available to help those with the condition lead happy,
independent lives. Treatments include serial casting, physical therapy,
occupational therapy and various surgeries.
