Abstract:
Quadriceps muscles extend the knees and are important for walking and balance. Knee buckling (sudden giving away of the knees) is the most common presentation of quadriceps weakness. Knee buckling is common in the elderly, as it can also be caused by knee arthritis. Patients with quadriceps weakness often modify their lifestyle for years before they seek medical advice. Quadriceps muscles are very sensitive to immobility, and they may lose half their bulk within 2 weeks. On the other hand, they build mass quickly with exercise. Sometimes quadriceps muscles are selectively and severely involved, leading to early disability. Severe thigh pain, if it continues for a few weeks, may lead to disuse atrophy. Severe neuropathic thigh pain and atrophy are typically seen in diabetic amyotrophy. Other causes of thigh pain include L3 radiculopathy, meralgia paresthetica, and muscle infarction. Examination of the knee extension should always be part of neuromuscular evaluation.

Abstract:
Quadriceps muscles extend the knees and are important for walking and balance. Knee buckling is the most common presentation of quadriceps weakness. Knee buckling is common in the elderly as it can also be caused by knee arthritis. Patients with quadriceps weakness often modify their lifestyle for years before they seek medical advice. Quadriceps muscles are very sensitive to immobility and they may lose 50% of their bulk within 2 weeks of immobility. On the other hand, they build mass quickly by exercises. Sometimes, quadriceps muscles are selectively and severely involved, leading to an early disability. Severe thigh pain, if continued for a few weeks, may lead to disuse atrophy. Severe neuropathic thigh pain and atrophy are typically seen in diabetic amyotrophy. Other causes of thigh pain include L3 radiculopathy, meralgia paresthetica, and muscle infarction. Examination of the knee extension should never be deleted from neuromuscular evaluation.

Abstract:
Sporadic inclusion body myositis (IBM) is an acquired muscle disorder associated with ageing, for which there is no effective treatment. It is characterized by a typical early clinical phenotype with (often asymmetric) weakness of the knee extensors and finger flexors, potential involvement of pharyngeal and upper-oesophageal muscles (which may contribute to malnutrition and aspiration), and progressive and slow deterioration, which may lead to severe disability and loss of quality of life. Muscle biopsy shows chronic myopathic features, lymphocytic infiltration with invasion of non-necrotic fibres, rimmed vacuoles, mitochondrial changes, and pathological accumulation of proteins in the muscle tissue. It remains uncertain whether IBM is primarily an immune-mediated inflammatory myopathy or a degenerative myopathy with an associated inflammatory component. This chapter will describe the clinical features, natural history, investigations, current pathogenic concepts, outcome measures, and therapeutic approaches in IBM. Despite recent clues, in many respects IBM remains an unsolved mystery.
