AB Skeletal,  or  voluntary,  muscle  constitutes  the  principal  organ  of  motion,  as  well  as  a  vast  metabolic  reservoir.  Disposed  in  more  than  600  separate  muscles,  this  tissue  makes  up  as  much  as  40  percent  of  the  weight  of  adult  human  beings.  An  intricacy  of  structure  and  function  undoubtedly  accounts  for  its  diverse  susceptibility  to  disease,  for  which  reason  the  main  anatomic  and  clinical  facts  are  provided  as  an  introduction  to  the  muscle  diseases.
