摘要
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is an effective treatment for a range of conditions believed to have an autoimmune basis, including inflammatory muscle disease. We describe a patient with muscle disease characterized by severe necrosis without clinical or biopsy evidence of inflammation or vasculitis, who responded to treatment with IVIG.
