Neuropathy in a patient with McArdle's syndrome and diabetes mellitus. 1977

T J Davies, and J S Harrop, and J M Smith, and V Marks

A juvenile-type diabetic patient of five years standing presented with a mononeuritis and gave a history of painful muscle swelling induced by exertion. Failure of the blood lactate to rise during ischaemic exercise and a normal blood glucose rise following intravenous glucagon confirmed the clinical diagnosis of muscle glycogenosis. The association of diabetes and McArdle's Syndrome has not previously been documented. An ulnar nerve palsy, which persisted for many months, followed the ischaemic exercise test possibly due to compression by muscular swelling, but may have been exacerbated by the co-existing diabetes.

D003929 Diabetic Neuropathies Peripheral, autonomic, and cranial nerve disorders that are associated with DIABETES MELLITUS. These conditions usually result from diabetic microvascular injury involving small blood vessels that supply nerves (VASA NERVORUM). Relatively common conditions which may be associated with diabetic neuropathy include third nerve palsy (see OCULOMOTOR NERVE DISEASES); MONONEUROPATHY; mononeuropathy multiplex; diabetic amyotrophy; a painful POLYNEUROPATHY; autonomic neuropathy; and thoracoabdominal neuropathy.
