I-17 Functional evaluation of muscle impairment in neuromuscular disorders
The early pathophysiologic study showed increasing evidence that autoimmunity is implicated in the pathogenesis of neuromyotonia. Antibodies to voltage gated potassium channel were detected in the serum of patients who had peripherical nerves hyperexcitability and also Morvan’s disease or limbic encephalitis. These discoveries offered new approaches to treatments. Recently, antibodies previousl...
متن کاملKetamine monoanaesthesia for diagnostic muscle biopsy in neuromuscular disorders in infancy and childhood: floppy infant syndrome.
The anaesthetic management of children with neuromuscular diseases giving rise to hypotonia is associated with a variety of problems. Ketamine alone was given by the intravenous or intramuscular route to 32 children with Floppy Infant Syndrome for diagnostic muscle biopsy. The patients aged between three months and 12 yr and weighing 3.2 to 28 kg were studied over three years (1986-1988). The s...
متن کاملMuscle Biopsy
Muscle biopsy has been used for a long time for diagnosis of muscular, nerurogenic and systemic disorders with muscle involvement, because only very few of these disorders show sufficient specific clinical features for definite diagnosis. Since the presence of difficulties in the screening of numerous genes, muscle biopsy could be a time and cost effective procedure for solving the diagnostic p...
متن کاملO-6 A muscle biopsy study in patients with Autism spectrum disorders and neuromuscular clinical signs
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders, with heterogeneous aetiology, characterized by deficiencies in social interaction and communication and by repetitive and stereotyped behaviours. The frequent association of ASD with other neurological and extra-neurological signs suggests that autism could be considered as a multiorgan systemic disorder with a primary central ne...
