Muscle Infarction

Diabetic Myonecrosis is a rare complication of long-standing Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 and 2. The most likely affected areas are of proximal lower limbs, mostly the quadriceps muscle. The presenting features are myriad and a diagnostic conundrum for the physician. There has been previously mentioned, through few case reports, the classical presentation of diabetes-related muscle infarction. Here we present a patient of diabetic myonecrosis, in whom the initial presentation of diabetes mellitus was that of bilateral symmetric proximal upper limb predominant muscle infarction, which has never been reported before.

Se presenta un paciente con diabetes mellitus tipo 1, con una complicación poco frecuente conocida como síndrome de Mauriac. Se realizan ayudas diagnósticas tendientes a descartar diagnósticos diferenciales como la mucopolisacaridosis tipo I, que se consideró una de las enfermedades de depósito más probables en el caso del paciente. Finalmente, se presenta una discusión del caso, resumiendo los aspectos fundamentales que llevaron a la sospecha del síndrome de Mauriac. Abstract This is a case report of a patient with diabetes mellitus type 1 and a rare complication known as Mauriac syndrome. Laboratory tests were performed to rule out differential diagnoses, such as mucopolysaccharidosis type I, which was considered one of the storage diseases, most likely for the patient. Finally, we present a discussion of the case, summarizing the key issues that led to the suspicion of a Mauriac syndrome.

AbstractNonketotic hyperglycemic chorea-ballism (NKHCB), also known as diabetic striato-pathy (DS) by some, is a rare complication of diabetes mellitus and uncommon in children. We report a case of a 10 11/12-year-old boy of Asian descent with uncontrolled type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and multiple food allergies presenting with bilateral chorea-ballism. His brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed developmental venous anomaly in right parietal lobe and right cerebellum, no focal lesions or abnormal enhancements. Choreiform movements resolved with correction of hyperglycemia. Children and adolescents with a movement disorder should be evaluated for diabetes mellitus, especially with increasing prevalence and insidious nature of T2DM associated with obesity.

AbstractObjectivesTreatment of children with Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) and particularly of those with coexistent diabetes mellitus type 1 (TIDM) and normal/mildly elevated serum TSH is controversial. The aim of the study was to evaluate the natural course of HT in children with TIDM compared with children with no other coexistent autoimmunity and investigate for possible predictive factors of thyroid function deterioration.MethodsData from 96 children with HT, 32 with T1DM (23 girls, nine boys) mean (sd) age: 10.6 (2.3) years, and 64 age and sex-matched without T1DΜ (46 girls, 18 boys), mean (sd) age: 10.2 (2.9) years were evaluated retrospectively. They all had fT4 and TSH values within normal ranges and available data for at least three years’ follow-up.ResultsDuring the follow-up period, 11 children (34.4%) with TIDM exhibited subclinical hypothyroidism and two children (6.2%) progressed to overt hypothyroidism compared to 12 (18.8%) and two (3.1%) among children without TIDM, respectively. Among children with HT, a higher percentage (40.6%) of children with T1DM progressed to subclinical or overt hypothyroidism, compared with children (21.9%) with similar characteristics but without TIDM or other coexistent autoimmunity.ConclusionsThe annual conversion rate from euthyroidism to hypothyroidism in children with T1DM was significantly higher compared to sex and age-matched children without TIDM. Prospective randomized trials are needed to support the view of an earlier intervention therapy even in milder degrees of thyroid failure in these children.

Objective.To describe the occurrence and main clinical and laboratory findings of patients having both juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM-1) in a period of 30 years.Methods.Eighty-two patients having simultaneous JIA and DM-1 were identified in the reimbursement registers of the Finnish National Institute of Insurance during the period 1976–2005. Data on their clinical histories were collected from patient files.Results.Occurrence of simultaneous JIA and DM-1 increased 4.5-fold between the first (1976-85) and the last (1996–2005) decade. Prevalence of uveitis was 7%, of rheumatoid factor seropositivity 15%; 22% of patients had a third autoimmune disease [autoimmune disease (AID)], and 16% had serious psychiatric problems.Conclusion.The occurrence of patients with the 2 diseases, JIA and DM-1, increased over 3 decades. The prevalence of uveitis was low, the number of seropositive patients was high, and further cases of AID were frequent. Patients had multiple additional problems necessitating multiprofessional care.
