Severe Myopathy Caused by the New Pandemic Influenza a (H1n1) in a Child

Abstract

Myopathy is a rare complication of influenza infections. Here, we report on an eight-year-old girl with severe myopathy due to new pandemic influenza A (H1N1). She presented with severe myopathy following generalized tonic-clonic seizure and recovered completely within a few days. © 2010, SAGE Publications. All rights reserved.
