Summary

Serum creatinine kinase (CK) level varies with age, gender, race and physical activity. For these reasons there is no normal serum CK level. Many pathological situations cause hyperCKemia, such as neuromuscular disorders (muscular dystrophy, inflammatory myositis, mitochondrial myopathy) and multiple systemic causes. The diagnostic approach to pauci or asymtomatic hyperCKemia can therefore be difficult and lead to multiple, and sometimes invasive tests, such as muscle biopsy. This study aims to describe the diagnoses associated with persistent elevation of serum creatine kinase and to precise the role of the muscule biopsy.
