Abstract
Nemalin miyopatisi değişik derecelerde ve genellikle ilerleyici olmayan kas güçsüzlüğü hipotoni ve derin tendon reflekslerinin azalması veya kaybı ile karakterize nadir görülen konjenital, herediter bir nöromusküler hastalıktır. Kas güçsüzlüğü ve hipotoni en belirgin özellik olup en sık yüz kasları, boyun ve gövde fleksör kasları, ayak dorsifleksör ve ayak parmak fleksör kasları etkilenir. Bazı hastalarda ince yüz görünümü, yüksek damak, pektus ekskavatum gibi minör bulgular da görülebilmektedir. Diğer atipik bulgular arasında artrogripozis, santral sinir sistemi tutulumu ve konjenital fraktürler sayılabilir.
Burada hipotoni ve bilateral femur fraktürü ile prezente olan bir nemalin miyopatisi olgusu sunulmaktadır. Bu olgu hipotonisi olan olgularda diğer klinik bulgularla birlikte nemalin miyopatisinin ayırıcı tanıda düşünülmesi ve tanı konmasında kas biyopsisinin öneminin vurgulanması amacıyla sunulmuştur.
