El síndrome de Kocher Debré Semelaigne (SKDS) se describe dentro de las formas clínicas atípicas asociadas al hipotiroidismo congénito (HC) severo, no tratado y de larga evolución, con manifestaciones de pseudohipertrofia muscular difusa y debilidad muscular predominantemente proximal, reversible al reemplazo con tiroxina. Es raro en países con programas de pesquisa neonatal.
Objetivo: reportar el caso de un niño con diagnóstico de HC por disembriogenesis (atireosis), que se mantuvo con mal control de la enfermedad durante el primer año de vida y manifestaciones miopáticas desde la etapa neonatal.
Resultados: se confirma el diagnóstico a través de estudios específicos, con evidencias de patrones miopáticos característicos. Se logra regresión clínica parcial a los nueve meses de mantener estabilidad de la TSH y las hormonas tiroideas (HT), coincidiendo con la normalización de la enzima de músculo creatinfosfoquinasa (CPK). A los 12 años de seguimiento, mantenía ligera hipertrofia de la musculatura de las extremidades superiores, dorsales y glúteos, a pesar de mantenerse eutiroideo.
Conclusiones: la presencia de hipertrofia muscular debe considerarse un dato clínico de sospecha de hipotiroidismo, aun con la implementación de los programas de pesquisa neonatal. Es posible la regresión parcial de la pseudohipertrofia muscular con el restablecimiento de la función tiroidea. Se debe tomar en cuenta en el diagnóstico diferencial de otras miopatías primarias.
Kocher-Debré-Semelaigne Syndrome (SKDS) is described within the atypical clinical forms associated with severe, untreated and long-standing congenital hypothyroidism with manifestations of diffuse muscle pseudohypertrophy and predominantly proximal muscle weakness, reversible to replacement with levothyroxine. Aim: To report the case of a child with congenital hypothyroidism due to disembriogenesis (atyreosis), who remained with poor control of the disease during the 1st year of life and myopathic manifestations from de neonatal stage. Results: The diagnosis is confirmed through specific studies, with evidence of characteristic myopathic patterns. Partial clinical regression is achieved 9 months after maintaining stability of TSH and thyroid hormones, coinciding with the normalization of the muscle enzyme creatine phosphokinase (CPK). At 12 years of follow-up, he maintained slight hypertrophy of the muscle of the upper extremities, dorsal and buttocks, despite remaining euthyroid. Conclusions: The presence of muscular hypertrophy should be considered a clinical finding of suspected hypothyroidism, even with the implementation of neonatal screening programs. Partial regression of muscle pseudohypertrophy is possible with restoration of thyroid function, and should be taken into account in the differential diagnosis of other primary myopathies.
