Dear Editor,

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory disease that affects the colorectal mucosa in a diffuse form, continuously and superficially.1 Polymyositis (PM) belongs to the spectrum of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, and is differentiated from dermatomyositis (DM) because of the absence of the characteristic skin rash.2 Muscle involvement in the form of PM has rarely been described in UC. We report the case of a patient who was initially diagnosed as having UC, and developed PM over the course of his disease. We also review cases published to date. Our patient was a 46-year-old man, an ex-smoker, who presented with persistent bloody diarrhea with no other associated symptoms, and was diagnosed with UC. At the age of 58 years, he presented with an episode of pain and swollen hands, and was too weak to climb stairs. Laboratory tests detected increases in creatine kinase (CK) (1578U/L) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (506U/L), although all other inflammatory parameters were normal. The rest of the biochemical study, including complete blood count, showed normal values. The immunological study demonstrated the presence of antinuclear antibodies, at a titer of 1/160, and negative tests for anti-extractable nuclear antigens (ENA), anti-DNA antibodies, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), anti-centromere antibodies, anti-Scl-70 and antibodies specific for myositis (Jo-1, PL7, PL12, OJ, EJ, SRP, Pm-Scl, Mi2 and Ku). A muscle biopsy of quadriceps was performed (Fig. 1), and evidenced variability in the size of the muscle fibers, with some necrotic fibers, regenerative basophilic fibers and frequent mononuclear inflammatory cell infiltrates, mostly lymphocytic and located in the endomysium. The expression of the major histocompatibility complex class I antigens was positive in the muscle fibers, all of which was compatible with the diagnosis of PM. Treatment was begun with a tapering dose of prednisone starting at 20mg/day, to be followed by methotrexate (maximum dose 25mg/week), and normalization of the CK and LDH levels was achieved after 16 months of treatment.

(B) Muscle expression of the class I antigens of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system. (C) There is an endomysial lymphocyte cell infiltrate located in the (hematoxylin–eosin stain ×40). (D) Variability of the size of the muscle fibers and periendomysial (hematoxylin–eosin stain ×10).

(0.97MB).

Muscle involvement in inflammatory bowel disease is uncommon; in fact, only 7 cases associating PM and UC have been published to date3–9 (Table 1). Only in the patient we describe was the diagnosis reached because of the increase in muscle enzymes. The response to glucocorticoid treatment was so good, in general, except in an individual who was refractory to several immunosuppressive agents and whose disease entered remission with mycophenolate mofetil.9 It has been suggested that the basis for the development of PM in UC results from the common immune-mediated mechanism, in which bowel inflammation and the damage to the mucosa would lead to a release of antigens, stimulating the production of antibodies that would damage the muscle. In conclusion, the development of PM in UC should be taken into account, especially when these patients describe symptoms such as myalgia, muscle weakness or present an increase in muscle enzymes. Although there are few cases reported in the literature, it may be underdiagnosed given that the symptoms may be few and not very specific, and can be attributed to other causes.
