Abstract:
Various muscles can be involved in idiopathic eosinophilic myositis (IEM), with the ocular muscles being notably affected. Ocular eosinophilic myositis is a rare condition that typically affects the rectus muscles. A tissue biopsy stands as the gold standard for diagnosis. Different subtypes exist based on the extent of eosinophilic infiltration. Limited data is available about treatment, although glucocorticoids have shown successful outcomes. We present the case of a 60-year-old man who, a few years after being diagnosed with ocular myasthenia gravis, was diagnosed through a tissue biopsy with ocular eosinophilic myositis. Treatment with oral glucocorticoids significantly improved his symptoms.
摘要:
各种肌肉可参与特发性嗜酸性肌炎(IEM),眼部肌肉受到显著影响。眼部嗜酸性粒细胞性肌炎是一种罕见的疾病,通常会影响直肌。组织活检是诊断的金标准。根据嗜酸性粒细胞浸润的程度存在不同的亚型。关于治疗的数据有限,尽管糖皮质激素已显示出成功的结果。我们介绍一个60岁的男人,在被诊断为眼部重症肌无力几年后,通过组织活检诊断为眼部嗜酸性肌炎。口服糖皮质激素治疗可显着改善其症状。
