dc.description.abstractTo investigate the prevalence of alcoholic myopathy and its relationship to the nutritional status, we performed a muscle biopsy on the vastum lateralis of 60 consecutive hospitalized alcoholic patients using a Tru-Cut needle, processing it for light microscope and ultrastructural analysis. The nutritional status was assessed by anthropometric measurements such as midarm circumference, triceps skinfold and midarm muscle area, and serum albumin. The hallmark of chronic alcoholic myopathy, fiber muscle atrophy, was present in 33% of the patients, necrosis scarcely being observed (1.5%). Ultrastructural alterations as lipid and glycogen accumulation or mitochondrial and myofibrillar alterations were nonspecific and observed in nearly all the cases where atrophy was present. Malnutrition was frequent in our patients: 39% and 34% showed a triceps skinfold and a midarm muscle area, respectively, under the fifth populational percentile. Patients with muscle fiber atrophy or ultrastructural changes showed a worse nutritional status, not only regarding muscle protein (assessed by midarm muscle area or creatininuria and explained by fiber atrophy), but also regarding fat stores assessed by triceps skinfold. Toxic effect of ethanol and malnutrition may act synergistically leading to chronic alcoholic myopathy.en_US
