Study Notes
-
Atypical Myopathy (AM) affects horses, particularly during autumn and spring, and is often associated with Sycamore trees in the UK and Box elder maple trees in the USA.
-
Risk factors for AM include mast years, pasture access, wet and windy weather, and presence of Sycamore trees.
-
Clinical signs of AM include weakness, muscle tremors and painful muscles, myoglobinuria, tachycardia, tachypnoea, and colic-like symptoms.
-
A horse with AM may appear recumbent and may have a distended bladder. Pasture mates can also be sub-clinically affected.
-
Diagnosis of AM involves elevated muscle enzymes (CK>10,000iu/L) and myoglobinuria, and submission of plasma for acylcarnitine profile and serum for hypoglycin A and conjugated MCPA.
-
Treatment for AM should begin immediately and includes fluid therapy, glucose supplementation or high CBH meals, analgesia, multivitamins, and removal of co-grazing horses from pasture.
-
Prognosis for AM is guarded, with up to 84% mortality reported. Horses that survive the first few days of treatment usually recover fully, but this may take months.
-
Prevention of AM includes avoiding sycamore trees, providing supplementary forage in the autumn, clearing fallen sycamore leaves and seeds from grazing areas, and bringing horses in at night.
-
Horses may also present with signs of Metabolic Myopathies, such as Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (HYPP), which is characterized by a gene mutation affecting voltage-dependent skeletal muscle sodium channels, and Malignant Hyperthermia (MH), which is a rare condition caused by a mutation in the ryanodine receptor gene.
-
Horses with MH are prone to muscle rigidity, high body temperature, tachycardia, and tachypnoea, and are worth screening before anesthetizing.
-
Prevention measures for Metabolic Myopathies include genetic testing, avoiding fasting, anesthesia and stress, and ensuring adequate magnesium and potassium levels.
-
Recurring Exertional Rhabdomyolysis (RER) and Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy (PSSM) are muscle disorders affecting horses.
-
RER: 9-6.7% of Thoroughbreds are affected, also occurs in Standardbreds and Arabians. Historically linked to high grain diets.
-
Clinical presentation: stiff, painful muscles (large muscle groups- gluteals, triceps), myoglobinuria, usually appears on the day following a rest day.
-
RER diagnosis: Trainers often recognize the signs, elevated muscle enzymes, muscle biopsy of semimembranosus, gold standard is in vitro contracture studies on intercostal muscle.
-
Pathogenesis: likely linked to calcium homeostasis but no abnormalities detected in affected horses, likely autosomal dominant inheritance, chronic non-specific changes associated with muscle regeneration.
-
Management of RER: Low starch diet, use fat for extra calories, access to a salt block, reduce caloric intake when not in work, feed smaller, more frequent meals, minimize stress.
-
Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy (PSSM): Same clinical presentation as RER, recurrent episodes, muscle pain, weakness, tremors or fasciculations, shifting lameness, sweating, myoglobinuria. Breed predilection: Quarterhorses, Appaloosa, Paint, European draft breeds.
-
PSSM diagnosis: Marked elevation of muscle enzymes (CK and AST), myoglobinuria in more severe cases, muscle biopsy of semimembranosus reveals abnormal polysaccharide in myofibres, not all cases have the GYS1 mutation.
-
Types of PSSM: PSSM Type 1 (PSSM1) is associated with a single dominant missense mutation in the equine muscle glycogen synthase gene, affecting glycogen synthesis and glycogenolysis. PSSM Type 2 (PSSM2) is a disease of abnormal glycogen storage, but pathogenesis is unknown.
-
Management of PSSM: Limit glycogen synthesis (reduce insulin activity) and promote glycogen breakdown through low starch, high fat diet, supplemental vitamin E, maintain regular work/turn out routine, avoid days off, minimize stress, minimize changes in management.
-
Rabdomyolysis: Minimize continued muscle damage (rest, anti-inflammatories/antioxidants), analgesia (NSAIDs, opioids, paracetamol, lidocaine infusion, ketamine infusion), correct fluid deficit/induce diuresis (oral or IV fluid therapy, correct electrolyte abnormalities, myoglobin can cause pigment changes in the kidney, NSAIDs can cause renal papillary necrosis).
-
Post-anesthetic myopathy: Localized rather than generalized myopathy, hard, hot, swollen muscles (gluteals, epaxial muscles, triceps), onset may be delayed, compartment syndrome (inappropriate positioning, increased pressure within muscle, ischemia, muscle swelling, increased pressure). Careful consideration needed.
