Abstract

During the influenza epidemic of 1998-1999, we observed two elderly patients with influenza-like symptoms who had evidence of acute myositis with elevated serum enzymes. Influenza A infection was confirmed serologically in either case. The present cases suggest that it is important to distinguish influenzal myositis from other forms of myopathy in the elderly patients.

摘要

在1998 - 1999年流感流行期间，我们观察到两名有流感样症状的老年患者，他们有急性肌炎伴血清酶升高的证据。两例均经血清学确诊为甲型流感感染。目前的病例表明，在老年患者中区分流感性肌炎与其他形式的肌病很重要。
