Abstract

Statins are a well-known and highly effective treatment for hypercholesterolemia in order to prevent cardiovascular disease. Occasionally, patients may experience muscle-related events such as myalgia or muscle cramps. Recently, SINAM (statin-induced necrotizing autoimmune myopathy) has been described in patients using statins. Although very uncommon, it may cause a life-threatening situation associated with rhabdomyolysis. We present a case concerning a 71-year-old woman who presented with muscle fatigue for several weeks. Statin therapy was discontinued but symptoms did not resolve. Further workup led to a diagnosis of SINAM for which treatment with immunosuppressants was started.

他汀类药物诱导的坏死性自身免疫性肌病(SINAM):病例报告和文献回顾
他汀类药物是一种众所周知且非常有效的治疗高胆固醇血症的药物,可以预防心血管疾病。偶尔,患者可能会经历肌肉相关事件,如肌痛或肌肉痉挛。最近,在使用他汀类药物的患者中有SINAM(他汀类药物诱导的坏死性自身免疫性肌病)的报道。虽然非常罕见,但它可能导致与横纹肌溶解相关的危及生命的情况。我们提出一个病例,涉及一个71岁的妇女谁提出了几个星期的肌肉疲劳。他汀类药物治疗停止,但症状没有缓解。进一步的检查诊断为SINAM,并开始使用免疫抑制剂治疗。
