Objective We report a male case with late-onset riboflavin-responsive multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenation deficiency(MADD) characterized by muscle weakness, muscle pain and intermittent vomiting after the age of 23.Methods and results This patient showed muscle weakness,muscle pain, intermittent vomiting and elevated blood creatine kinase level (1632 IU/L; normal <174 lU/L).He was diagnosed as polymyositis and received prednisone therapy (50 mg/day) for 40 days, but it was ineffective to his muscle weakness or muscle pain.After steroid treatment, blood creatine kinase level and EMG testwere normal, while muscle biopsy revealed slightly lipid storage.
