Statins and Immune-Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy
Statins are a well-recognized cause of a variety of skeletal myopathic effects, which generally resolve when discontinuing the treatment. Among autoimmune manifestations associated with statins, there is immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM).

ABSTRACT We report a case of a kidney transplant recipient who presented with generalised muscle pain, weakness and brown urine discoloration in the setting of acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection. Investigations demonstrated rhabdomyolysis with elevated creatine kinase levels and severe acute kidney injury (AKI).

Statin-induced necrotizing autoimmune myopathy: an extremely rare adverse effect from statin use
Statins are widely prescribed medications to prevent cardiovascular events. While self-limited statin myopathy is relatively common, statin-induced necrotizing autoimmune myopathy (SINAM) is extremely uncommon, with incidence of two cases per million per

A 73‐Year‐Old Man With Several Years of Difficulty Climbing Stairs and Frequent Tripping
ABSTRACT A 73‐year‐old man presented with progressive weakness and atrophy predominantly affecting the distal finger flexors and quadriceps muscles. Electrophysiological studies demonstrated mixed myogenic and neurogenic features. Muscle MRI showed inflammatory changes, and muscle biopsy revealed granulomatous myositis with histologic features ...
