A 12-year-old girl had progressive unilateral muscle hypertrophy limited to the sole, tibialis anterior, and biceps femoris muscles. The affected muscles showed complex repetitive discharges by electromyography, necrosis and variation of fiber size upon histopathological examination, and increased metabolic activity in biochemical studies. The findings suggest a myopathic origin, but the actual cause remains unknown.
一名12岁女孩出现进行性单侧肌肉肥大,仅累及足底肌、胫骨前肌和股二头肌。肌电图显示受累肌肉有复合重复放电,组织病理学检查显示有坏死和肌纤维大小变异,生化研究显示代谢活性增加。这些发现提示为肌病性起源,但实际病因仍不明。
