Popis: | A 26-year-old Japanese woman developed a fever, myalgia and gait disturbance one day after receiving the second dose of the mRNA-1273 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine. A neurological examination revealed symmetrical weakness and myalgia in proximal lower limbs, and a blood examination showed prominent elevation of creatinine kinase. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a high signal intensity in the thigh muscles on short-tau inversion recovery images, and antibody testing revealed positive findings for anti-signal recognition particle (SRP) antibody. Thus, anti-SRP antibody-positive immune-mediated myopathy was diagnosed. We initiated immunotherapy, and she was ultimately able to walk stably. |
