Amyloidotic muscle pseudohypertrophy: case report Pseudo-hipertrofia muscular associada com amiloidose: relato de caso
The authors report one case of amyloidosis associated with muscular pseudohypertrophy in a 46-year-old woman, who developed weakness, macroglossia and muscle hypertrophy associated with primary systemic amyloidosis. Electromyography showed a myopathic pattern and bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. Th...

| description | The authors report one case of amyloidosis associated with muscular pseudohypertrophy in a 46-year-old woman, who developed weakness, macroglossia and muscle hypertrophy associated with primary systemic amyloidosis. Electromyography showed a myopathic pattern and bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. The muscle biopsy presented with a type I and II fiber hypertrophy and infiltration of amyloid material in the interstitious space and artery walls. She underwent bone marrow transplantation with stabilization and subjective improvement of the clinical picture.<br>Descreve-se um caso de pseudo-hipertrofia muscular associada a amiloidose primária em uma paciente do sexo feminino, com 46 anos, que apresentava astenia e macroglossia. O estudo eletromiográfico mostrou padrão miopático e síndrome do túnel do carpo, bilateral. A biópsia muscular revelou hipertrofia de fibras tipo I e II, com infiltração de material amilóide no interstício e parede dos vasos, principalmente arteriais. A paciente foi submetida a transplante autólogo de medula óssea, evoluindo com estabilização do quadro e um sentimento subjetivo de melhora. |
