Current Issue Back Issues Stories by Topic Research Stories ... Advertise QUEST Volume 8, Number 2, April 2001 ADVANCES IN INCLUSION-BODY MYOSITIS The least understood inflammatory myopathy is finally yielding to researchers' probes by Margaret Wahl On winter mornings in icy Prescott, Wis., Ed Bankston gets up early, and, as he has done for many years, drives to his office in St. Paul, Minn. Bankston, 55, has been an attorney with the St. Paul District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers since 1988, and he now heads the district's legal department. But getting to his desk requires a little more planning than it once did. Nowadays, Bankston drives an adapted Dodge Caravan with hand as well as foot controls to an underground garage, where a staff member meets him with a power wheelchair. In the evening, he drives the chair back down to the garage and transfers into his van. Walking is something Bankston has all but given up, except to get into the shower, which requires two forearm crutches. His arms and hands are weak, making it hard to hold onto objects or to open containers. The trouble started in his late 40s, when Bankston began feeling that his muscles were no longer as strong as they once were. "If I was trying to play tennis or bicycling and tried to stop, my knee would buckle, and I would fall," he recalls. "And I couldn't walk as fast as I used to. At first, I thought I was just getting older."

Lupus Sclerodermie ] [Poly-en Dermatomyositis] [ Vasculitis MCTD [CIB] [CIB-Liga] [Contact] Door dr. M. Walravens , reumatoloog, O.L.Vrouw-ziekenhuis te Aalst Wat is polymyositis (PM)? Wat is dermatomyositis (DM)? Belangrijkste symptomen PM/DM bij kinderen ... Erfelijkheid Wat is polymyositis (PM)? Polymyositis is een ziekte waarbij de spieren ontsteken, waarschijnlijk ten gevolge van auto-immuunreacties. De eigelijke oorzaak is echter nog niet bekend. Wat is dermatomyositis (DM)? Wanneer polymyositis samengaat met een bepaald soort huidontstekingen spreekt men van dermatomyositis (derma = huid). Belangrijkste symptomen Het eerste symptoom is meestal spierzwakte en wel van de bekkenspieren, wat zich uit door moeite bij het bestijgen van trappen, bij het fietsen enz. Terzelfder tijd of kort nadien ontstaan dezelfde klachten in de nek en de schoudergordelspieren. De krachtsvermindering kan licht tot heel ernstig zijn, gaande tot verlamming. Er kan min of meer belangrijke spierpijn aanwezig zijn. De huidverschijnselen zijn meestal ook in het begin al aanwezig en kunnen zelfs de spierproblemen voorafgaan. Soms zijn de spierklachten minder belangrijk dan de huidklachten. Gewrichtsontstekingen met zwelling, maar zonder aantasting van kraakbeen of bot komen voor.

Myositis Ossificans Myositis ossificans is an extra-osseous non neoplastic growth of new bone. A synonym for myositis ossificans is heterotopic ossification. There are several clinical subtypes of myositis ossificans. Myositis ossificans circumscripta refers to new extra-osseous bone that appears after trauma. Progressive myositis ossificans is a rare, inherited disorder characterized by fibrosing and ossification of muscle, tendon and ligaments of multiple sites often in the upper extremities and back that is disabling and ultimately fatal. I myositis ossificans is also a recognized complication of paralysis that occurs below the level of spinal cord injury. Myositis ossificans occurs most commonly in the second and third decade in the arms and thighs of patients who have experienced some sort of trauma. The quadriceps and brachialis are the most affected. Myositis ossificans presents as a rapid enlargement and significant pain one to two weeks after injury. The patient has swelling and warmth at the site as well as an increased ESR and serum alkaline phosphatase. The clinical picture differs from that of osteosarcoma (which is often on the differential as the age groups are the same) as the pain from myositis ossificans decreases as time goes on where osteosarcoma pain increases.

KLACHTEN BIJ SPIERZIEKTEN spierpijn spierzwakte spiervermoeibaarheid Spierpijn Om een diagnose te kunnen stellen moet de arts de verschillende types spierpijn onderscheiden. Spierkramp bijvoorbeeld is een vrij hevige spierpijn. Deze kan spontaan optreden en dat gebeurt nog al eens bij oudere mensen en bij zwangere vrouwen. Ze kan voortkomen van een verhoogde prikkelbaarheid van de spieren, zoals door een gebrek aan magnesium. Een spierkramp kan ook optreden door een metabole spierziekte, een ziekte die te wijten is aan een stofwisselingsstoornis. Hierdoor kan de spier soms onvoldoende bouwstenen in energie omzetten om een bepaalde inspanning te doen.
