Distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV) is an autosomal recessive or sporadic early adult-onset myopathy caused by mutations in the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase and N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) gene. Characteristic pathologic features of DMRV are rimmed vacuoles on muscle biopsy and tubulofilamentous inclusion in ultrastructural study. Presence of inflammation in DMRV is unusual. We report a sporadic case of DMRV in a 40-year-old Thai man who presented with slowly progressive distal muscle weakness. Gene analysis revealed a compound heterozygous mutation of the GNE gene including a novel mutation c.1057A&gt;G (p.K353E) and a known mutation c.2086G&gt;A (p.V696M). The latter is the most common mutation in Thai DMRV patients. The muscle pathology was compatible with DMRV except for focal inflammation.
