This patient had suffered, since young, from mild exercise intolerance and calf pain after intense exercise. Five years before visiting our center she suffered from a symptomatology of weak pelvic girdle muscles and limb myalgia, reason why an analysis showed increased muscle enzymes (CK 5863<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>IU/l [NV: <195<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>IU/l] and aldolase 51.4<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>IU/l [NV: <7<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>IU/l]). Initially it was thought that the symptomatology was due to the use of statins, which had been prescribed two years before. After the withdrawal of these drugs she was assessed at another hospital due to lack of clinical and testing improvement, where an electromyogram showed proximal myopathy in both quadriceps, and a muscle biopsy of this muscle showed necrosis of isolated muscle fibers, a lymphohistiocytic inflammatory infiltrate (mainly T lymphocytes) of endomysial location and regenerative changes of muscle fibers. With these findings she was diagnosed with PM and underwent neoplasm screening, with normal results. The immunological study was negative. The patient began treatment for a year and a half with prednisone and several immunosuppressors (methotrexate, azathioprine and mycophenolate), without a clear improvement. Therefore, ultimately she was administered rituximab, not responding to treatment either. Finally immunosuppressive therapy was discontinued and prednisone dosage was lowered until withdrawal about 6 months before our assessment.</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Assessed at our center, the patient had a normal phenotype, and the examination revealed mild motor deficit of the abductors and hip extensors. Analytically, muscle enzymes remained high (CK 3645<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>IU/l). The immunological study was negative, including ANA, ENA, anti-synthetase panel and anti-hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase. An electromyogram showed signs of diffuse myopathic involvement predominant in the lower limbs. Muscle MRI showed atrophy of lumbar paravertebral, the gluteus minimus, posterior compartment of the thigh and triceps surae muscles (global in right and part of the left) and edema of both sartorial and quadriceps muscles. Therefore, a quadriceps muscle biopsy was repeated and showed variation in cell size with rounded atrophic fibers, increased endomysial connective tissue and necrosis with macrofagia and regeneration. Immunohistochemistry for MHC-I showed expression only in abnormal cells. Finding a necrotizing myositis in biopsy without data indicative of an immune-mediated pathogenesis, with signs of muscle atrophy in muscle MRI and in a patient with muscle symptoms since she was young, was suggestive of potential disferlinopathy. Confirmation was obtained determining the expression of dysferlin by Western-blot in peripheral blood monocytes of the patient, which turned out to be 18%, confirming the existence of a deficiency in dysferlin (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>). The genetic study detected mutation c.5509G>A, p.Asp1837Asn, g.71896321G>A, located in exon 49 in homozygosis.
