Nemaline myopathy 10

An autosomal recessive severe form of nemaline myopathy. Nemaline myopathies are muscular disorders characterized by muscle weakness of varying severity and onset, and abnormal thread-like or rod-shaped structures in muscle fibers on histologic examination. NEM10 is characterized by early-onset generalized muscle weakness and hypotonia with respiratory insufficiency and feeding difficulties. Additional features include arthrogryposis or congenital contractures, ophthalmoplegia, a history of prematurity, reduced fetal movements, and polyhydramnios. Most patients die of respiratory failure in early infancy.

Concurrent Sporadic Late-Onset Nemaline Myopathy and an Excessive Glycogen Accumulation Associated With Monoclonal Gammopathy.

European journal of neurology2026 Mar

Monoclonal gammopathy-associated myopathies (MGAMs) include light chain (AL) amyloid myopathy, sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM), and vacuolar myopathy with monoclonal gammopathy and stiffness (VAMMGAS). These subtypes usually occur separately, although rare overlap has been described. We report a patient with monoclonal gammopathy and concurrent SLONM and excessive glycogen accumulation, resembling VAMMGAS but with distinct features. Case report with clinical, electrophysiological, pathological, and therapeutic characterization of a patient with IgG-kappa monoclonal gammopathy and coexisting SLONM and glycogen accumulation within muscle fibers. A 69-year-old man developed subacute progressive axial and limb weakness, head drop, dysphagia, and weight loss. Examination showed proximal/distal weakness, neck extensor weakness, and lumbar hyperlordosis. EMG revealed myopathic motor unit potentials without electrical myotonia or complex repetitive discharges. Serum studies identified IgG-kappa monoclonal protein with elevated kappa light chain and ratio. Muscle biopsy demonstrated nemaline rods (1% of fibers) and scattered fibers with non-rimmed vacuoles (0.3% of fibers) containing PAS-positive, diastase-labile material consistent with concurrent SLONM and glycogen storage myopathy-like pathology. Genetic testing for congenital nemaline and glycogen storage myopathies was negative. Plasma-cell directed therapy with daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone led to rapid functional improvement and M-protein reduction. Further gains followed autologous stem cell transplantation. This case expands the MGAM spectrum, highlighting co-occurrence of SLONM and an excessive glycogen accumulation responsive to immunotherapy and transplantation. These findings suggest a spectrum of related disease processes. Recognition of this combined pathology is clinically important, as affected patients may benefit from targeted immunotherapy or stem cell transplantation.

Sporadic Late-Onset Nemaline Myopathy Presenting with Dropped Head Syndrome and Complicated with Sjögren's Syndrome: A Case Report.

Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)2026 Jan 15

Sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM) is a rare neuromuscular disorder often associated with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). However, reports of SLONM without MGUS are limited, particularly in cases complicated by Sjögren's syndrome. We herein report the case of a 62-year-old woman with SLONM without MGUS, associated with Sjögren's syndrome. The patient presented with dropped head syndrome (DHS). A muscle biopsy confirmed SLONM, and Sjögren's syndrome was diagnosed. Treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and corticosteroids improved her muscle strength. This case highlights the importance of considering SLONM in the differential diagnosis when dropped head is the predominant clinical presentation.

Monoclonal Gammopathy - the common denominator of sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy and paraproteinemic neuropathy.

Neuromuscular disorders : NMD2026 Feb

Sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM) is an acquired adult-onset myopathy characterized by subacute proximal weakness and nemaline rods in muscle. Although SLONM frequently occurs with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), the coexistence with other MGUS-related disorders has not been reported. We describe three patients with SLONM and paraproteinemic neuropathy, showing sensory involvement and variable motor deficits, from mild non-progressive disease to a severe form with bulbar complications. Muscle histology revealed a significant number of fibres with nemaline rods and also frequent mitochondrial abnormalities, while nerve pathology demonstrated granular endoneurial deposits consistent with immune-complex-mediated neuropathy. One untreated patient remained stable, whereas the other two progressive, immunosuppressive-refractory cases improved with anti-plasma cell therapy. These cases illustrate a previously unreported co-occurrence of SLONM and MGUS-associated neuropathy. Despite differing clinical courses, shared pathology suggests common mechanisms, with mitochondrial abnormalities as a possibly under-recognized feature. Muscle and nerve biopsy including electronmicroscopic analysis is crucial for accurate diagnosis, and clone-directed therapy may provide benefit.

Sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM): Data from a case series and literature review of 144 patients.

Autoimmunity reviews2026 Feb

Sporadic Late-Onset Nemaline Myopathy (SLONM) is an acquired myopathy presenting in adulthood with progressive proximal and axial muscle weakness. A substantial proportion of cases are associated with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), referred to as SLONM-MGUS, suggesting a potential immune-mediated pathogenesis. Although the presence of MGUS has clinical and therapeutic implications, its exact role in disease severity and progression remains unclear. We aimed to characterize clinical, pathological, and prognostic differences between SLONM-MGUS and SLONM without MGUS (SLONM-noMGUS). We conducted a systematic review of SLONM case series published over the past 25 years, supplemented by a single-center case series of five additional patients from our institution (Sant'Andrea Hospital, Rome). Eligible subjects included adult patients diagnosed with SLONM based on clinical features and muscle biopsy demonstrating nemaline rods. Data on demographics, laboratory parameters, histopathological findings, treatments and outcomes were extracted and compared between SLONM-MGUS and SLONM-noMGUS cohorts. Of the 144 patients analyzed, 47 % were classified as SLONM-MGUS. These patients exhibited more severe clinical manifestations, including increased respiratory involvement (p = 0.006). Histopathologically, SLONM-MGUS revealed more prominent nemaline rods (p = 0.032), often accompanied by cytoplasmic bodies and lobulated fibers, and frequently required repeat muscle biopsies for diagnosis (p = 0.0285). Inflammatory infiltrates were less frequent in SLONM-MGUS (p = 0.0176). Functional outcomes were significantly worse in this group, with reduced likelihood of full recovery (p = 0.013) and higher rates of non-ambulatory status (p = 0.01). Patients receiving dual or more treatment regimens, particularly those including IVIg and/or autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), had more favorable outcomes. These findings indicate that SLONM-MGUS represents a more severe phenotype of SLONM with distinct clinico-pathological features and poorer prognosis. Notably, combined treatment regimens, including IVIg and/or ASCT, were associated with improved outcomes, highlighting the importance of early recognition and aggressive therapeutic strategies in selected patients.
