A 52-year-old man had been asymptomatic except for nasal speech since his third decade of life. A chest roentgenogram obtained during a health screening one year before admission revealed elevation of the right hemidiaphragm and infiltrates in the right lower lung field. Because the pulmonary shadows had gradually increased, he was admitted to the hospital, for further examination. Based on physiological findings and on the results of electromyography, myotonic dystrophy was diagnosed. The chest roentgenographic abnormalities were regarded as resulting from complications of this disease. Arterial blood gas analysis showed hypercapnic hypoxia and a spirogram showed that the vital capacity and maximum voluntary ventilation were about half of their respective predicted values. The hypercapnic ventilatory response was also abnormally low. An overnight study of oxygen saturation showed episodes of marked desaturation, and polysomnography revealed central sleep apnea. Inhalation of capsaicin showed an abnormally high cough threshold. Patients with undiagnosed myotonic dystrophy rarely present with chest roentgenographic abnormalities.
