    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Pathology
    • Toxicology

    Context:

    • Alcoholic myopathy is a significant complication of chronic alcohol abuse.
    • Understanding its histological manifestations is crucial for diagnosis.

    Purpose:

    • To report six cases of alcoholic myopathy, differentiating between acute and chronic forms.
    • To elucidate the histological findings and discuss pathogenic mechanisms.

    Summary:

    • Acute alcoholic myopathy presented with sarcoplasmic dystrophic changes and rhabdomyolysis, particularly in lower extremities.
    • Chronic alcoholic myopathy showed selective atrophy of Type 2 muscle fibers.
    • Pathogenesis involves direct/indirect alcohol effects and acetaldehyde-induced metabolic disturbances.

    Impact:

    • Provides detailed histological insights into alcoholic myopathy subtypes.
    • Contributes to the differential diagnosis of myopathies.
    • Highlights the role of ethanol metabolism in muscle damage.
