Normal platelet aggregation in myotonic dystrophy.
In 18 patients with myotonic dystrophy, spontaneous aggregation and platelet aggregation induced by thrombin, adenosine diphosphate and epinephrine were compared with normal aggregation patterns. In 17 of the 18 patients the results were not significantly different from normal. In 1 patient spontaneous aggregation and hypersensitive platelets were found. These results are in disagreement with earlier reports on a specific hypersensitivity to epinephrine in myotonic dystrophy. Neither the clinical data (myotonia, paresis) nor the laboratory data (creatine kinase, myoglobin, immunoglobulin G) were correlated with the platelet aggregations.
