Statin-associated myopathy comprises of a spectrum of conditions ranging from benign myalgias to statin-induced immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy. Statin-induced immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy is an autoimmune condition wherein there is a destruction of normal skeletal muscular architecture that can be severely debilitating if not recognized promptly. Given its rarity, management is a challenge. We present one such case that was managed with aggressive immunosuppression.
他汀类药物相关肌病包括一系列病症，从良性肌痛到他汀类药物诱导的免疫介导坏死性肌病。他汀类药物诱导的免疫介导坏死性肌病是一种自身免疫性疾病，其中正常骨骼肌结构遭到破坏，如果不及时识别，可能会导致严重功能障碍。鉴于其罕见性，治疗是一项挑战。我们介绍了一例通过积极免疫抑制治疗的病例。
