Summary: | Abstract
To review our diagnostic and treatment approaches concerning sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) and polymyositis with mitochondrial pathology (PM-Mito), we conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical and histological data of 32 patients diagnosed as sIBM and 7 patients diagnosed as PM-Mito by muscle biopsy. Of 32 patients identified histologically as sIBM, 19 fulfilled the 2011 European Neuromuscular Center (ENMC) diagnostic criteria for “clinico-pathologically defined sIBM” at the time of biopsy. Among these, 2 patients developed sIBM after years of immunosuppressive treatment for organ transplantation. Of 11 patients fulfilling the histological but not the clinical criteria, including 3 cases with duration |
