α-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR) deficiency is a rare disorder, affecting peroxisomal metabolism of pristanic acid, with ten published adult cases. We describe an AMACR deficiency case with a clinical presentation dominated by episodic hyperCKaemia, suggesting that myopathic features of AMACR should be considered.
