Feels so good to be back to #Neurology. Today I had the pleasure to give #Neurologymorningreport on Necrotizing Autoimmune Myopathy #NAM. #MedTwitter follow below a few pearls I shared with the team @ErsidaBuraniqi @nzalewski2. THREAD.
#NAM is an autoimmune myopathy characterized by severe proximal weakness, myofiber necrosis with minimal or no inflammatory infiltrates on muscle biopsy, and infrequent extra-muscular involvement.
- Usually presents with subacute/chronic severe proximal weakness. Neck weakness is common and dysphagia occurs in aproximately 1/3
- EMG shows proximal myopathy with fibrillation potentials
- CK is usually markedly elevated (in the thousands range)
