Hypothyroid myopathy mimicking postpolio syndrome.

Rajesh Verma1, Rakesh Lalla, Ritesh Sahu.   

Abstract

Hypothyroidism can have diverse neurological manifestations. Myopathy may rarely be the sole manifestation of autoimmune thyroiditis. We hereby report an atypical manifestation of severe hypothyroidism in a middle-aged woman with childhood onset of paralytic polio involving her right leg presenting with a recent onset of increased weakness in the right leg mimicking postpolio syndrome.
