摘要: Episodic myoglobinuria is a well-recognized complication of metabolic myopathies, and may occur in Duchenne Becker dystrophies, but has only rarely been associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. We describe an unusual presentation, rhabdomyolysis, dystrophy (LGMD). evaluated patient for progressive muscle weakness tenderness, one week after initial presentation. Immunohistochemistry on tissue revealed absent staining gamma-sarcoglycan, confirmed by detection homozygous mutation the gamma-sarcoglycan gene. Myoglobinuria previously reported twice LGMD. It therefore important to recognize that be symptom dystrophy, biopsy immunostaining are tools diagnosis.
