Amyloid myoneuropathy mimicking inclusion body myositis.
myopathy affecting proximal and distal musculature with typical onset of symptoms after age 50 years. Inclusion body myositis more often affects males and results in a classical pattern of early asymmetric weakness and wasting of forearm flexors (wrist and long finger flexors), quadriceps and ankle dorsiflexors. Inclusion body myositis is more frequently associated with a monoclonal gammopathy ...

OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical and electrophysiologic features of patients with inclusion body myositis that was misinterpreted as motor neuron disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively retrieved the medical records of 70 patients with a pathologic diagnosis of inclusion body myositis. From this group, we selected those who had been first diagnosed as having motor neuron disease or...

Inclusion body myositis (IBM), the most common age-related muscle disease in the elderly population, is an incurable disorder leading to severe disability. Sporadic IBM has an unknown etiology, although affected muscle fibers are characterized by many of the pathobiochemical alterations traditionally associated with neurodegenerative brain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Accumulation of ...
متن کاملInclusion-body myositis
Inclusion-body myositis is the most frequent and disabling myopathy seen in patients over 50 years of age. The distinct clinical features that lead to correct diagnosis and inclusion-body myositis mimics are highlighted. Inclusionbody myositis has a complex pathogenesis in which autoimmune and inflammatory features coexist with elements of degeneration and abundant accumulations of various stre...
متن کاملInclusion Body Myositis
Inclusion body myositis is an insidious, slowly progressive myopathy of middle-aged and older individuals. Because of these characteristics, diagnosis is often delayed. Affected muscle is marked by the presence of rimmed vacuoles, inclusions, and an inflammatory infiltrate largely made up of CD8 T lymphocytes and macrophages. The inclusions contain beta-amyloid and phosphorylated tau protein, a...
