[Subacute Flaccid Tetraparesis]

Subacute Flaccid Tetraparesis Abstract. The patient presented herself with a subacute flaccid tetraparesis. After clinical examination, laboratory analysis, EMG, MRI and muscle biopsy we diagnosed a statin-associated immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy. Neurorehabilitation and prednisolone therapy as well as immunomodulatory therapy with azathioprine did not result in remission. After two cycles of Privigen®, the patient was almost symptom-free and no longer restricted in everyday life; the CK fell to 400U/l.
