In a mason aged 48 years gradually hardness, rigidity and painful muscle spasms, slowness of movements and awkwardness with progressing difficulties in walking developed. Only after several months of observation the finding of pseudo-myotonia suggested the diagnosis of Hoffmann's syndrome during hypothyroidism. In a number of neurological syndromes and in unclear muscular signs it is useful to consider hypothyroidism in the differential diagnosis.
一名48岁的泥瓦匠逐渐出现肌肉变硬、强直和疼痛性痉挛，动作迟缓以及行走困难逐渐加重且笨拙。仅经过数月观察，假性肌强直的表现提示诊断为甲状腺功能减退症所致的霍夫曼综合征。在许多神经系统综合征以及不明原因的肌肉体征中，在鉴别诊断时考虑甲状腺功能减退症是有用的。
