[Polymyositis associated with HIV immunodeficiency: clinical case and literature review]. Revue medicale de Bruxelles, 2001, Volume: 22, Issue:3 A 33 year old female, suffering from HIV infection, presents with diffuse myalgia, generalized muscle weakness and painless dysphagia. An extensive work-up allows to diagnose an HIV-related polymyositis; while well-known, this entity is however rarely observed. Technetium-99m MDP skeletal scintigraphy shows multiple extra-osseous accumulations of the tracer: these observations, as well as the differential diagnoses of muscular involvement during HIV infection, are discussed. Topics: Adult; Anti-Inflammatory Agents; Biopsy; Deglutition Disorders; Diagnosis, Differential; Female; HIV Infections; Humans; Muscle Weakness; Pain; Polymyositis; Prednisolone; Technetium Tc 99m Medronate	2001

Increased uptake of technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate in muscles in the course of polymyositis. Nuclear medicine review. Central & Eastern Europe, 2005, Volume: 8, Issue:2 A case of a woman aged 46 years with signs of rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure is presented. Coxsackie serum test was positive. Increased uptake of Technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP) by muscles of thighs and calves was observed. After 1 year no increased accumulation of radiotracer in the muscles was found.
