摘要
Granulomatous myopathies are rare. Most cases are associated with sarcoidosis. We report a case of granulomatous myopathy associated with primary biliary cirrhosis, pancytopenia, and thymoma. The literature in regard to granulomatous myopathy and its pathogenesis is reviewed. Intermittent pulsed intravenous methylprednisolone may be useful as maintenance therapy for granulomatous myopathy and other neuromuscular syndromes for patients intolerant of oral corticosteroids.
