Brief Summary

Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy is a Autosomal dominant inherited dystrophy with the prevalence of 1:20,000 and it is the third most common dystrophy after the dystrophinopathies and myotonic dystrophy. The symptoms including: Pain, facial weakness, scapular fixator, humeral, truncal, pelvic girdle and lower-extremity weakness, High frequency hearing loss, Retinal telangiectasia . The existing treatments are not effective so, cell therapy is a new hope to improve patients' quality of life. Therefore, We design this clinical trial to evaluate the safety and feasibility of stem cell transplantation.
