Abstract

Muscle weakness and stiffness, relaxation difficulty, pain, edema, could be seen in patients with hypotyhroidism. Myopathy was seen in 10-70 % and neuropathy was seen in 20-80 % of patients with hypothyroidism. In this study, we presented four patients (two women, two men) with hypothyroidism. All patients had neuropathic and/ or mypathic findings in electroneuromyography examinations. We aimed to evaluate the neuromuscular changes in patients with hypothyroidism.

Özet

Hipotiroidide kaslarda güçsüzlük, ağrı, kontraksiyon ve gevşemede yavaşlama ve ödem gibi nöromuskuler semptomlar görülebilmektedir. Hipotiroidiye bağlı myopati % 10-70, nöropati ise % 20-80 oranları arasında görülmektedir. Bu yazıda yaşları 47-71 arasında ikisi erkek ikisi kadın dört hipotiroidik hastanın nöromuskuler tutulum özellikleri sunulmuştur. Hastaların dördünde elektromyografide nöropati ve/veya myopatik özellikler tespit edildi. Hipotiroidiye bağlı nöromuskuler tutulumun özellikleri literatür eşliğinde gözden geçirilmesi amaçlandı.
