Musculoskeletal involvement in large vessel vasculitis (LVV) usually manifests as polyarthralgia and myalgias but without elevated creatine kinase (CK) levels. Herein, we report a rare case of LVV with the first presentation of acute rhabdomyolysis. With the use of magnetic resonance angiography and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography, LVV was properly diagnosed. Ultimately, the patient achieved a favourable outcome after timely and persistent use of glucocorticoids. We present a case to supply clues for unusual diagnoses of LVV for febrile patients with myalgia and elevated CK. |
