Summary: Benign acute childhood myositis (BACM) is an uncommon, disabling, self-limited disease that is relatively unknown by healthcare providers. This article reports a case of BACM in a 6 year-old child who suffered from calf pain and was unable to bear weight after an upper respiratory tract infection. There was no history of trauma and there were no similar episodes in the past. Because of its excellent prognosis, increased awareness by primary care health care providers is needed, to permit safe follow up in most cases

Este artigo relata um caso de miosite numa criança de seis anos de idade, com dor na região gemelar e incapacidade para a marcha no contexto de infeção respiratória alta, sem história de traumatismos ou episódios semelhantes no passado. O prognóstico favorável desta manifestação clínica permite o acompanhamento com segurança da maioria dos casos em cuidados de saúde primários, bastando para isso um reconhecimento da patologia por parte dos profissionais.Associação Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiar2016-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.32385/rpmgf.v32i5.11889https://doi.org/10.32385/rpmgf.v32i5.11889Portuguese Journal of Family Medicine and General Practice; Vol. 32 No. 5 (2016): Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiar; 346-8Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiar; Vol. 32 Núm. 5 (2016): Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiar; 346-8Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiar; Vol. 32 N.º 5 (2016): Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiar; 346-82182-51812182-517310.32385/rpmgf.v32i5reponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPporhttps://rpmgf.pt/ojs/index.php/rpmgf/article/view/11889https://rpmgf.pt/ojs/index.php/rpmgf/article/view/11889/11297Direitos de Autor (c) 2016 Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Geral e Familiarinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCossutta, Fabrizio2024-09-17T12:00:02Zoai:ojs.rpmgf.pt:article/11889Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T18:52:04.444003Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
