Isaacs' syndrome (autoimmune neuromyotonia) in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus.

Philip W Taylor1.   

Abstract

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) often produce autoantibodies against a large number of antigens. A case of SLE is presented in which muscle twitching and muscle cramps were associated with an autoantibody directed against the voltage-gated potassium channel of peripheral nerves (Isaacs' syndrome).
