Seven children with myositis of influenza visited our clinics in January/February, 1977. Signs of myositis were observed in the form of fever and catarrhal manifestations with the symptoms or during the periods of recovery from these symptoms. Such severe pain appeared in the calf muscles that most of patients were unable to walk. Affected calf muscles were tender on palpation and swelling. Leucocytopenia and elevations of serum-creatine-phosphokinase (CPK) and serum-glutamic-oxaloacetic-tranceaminase (GOT) levels were observed during the acute phase of illness. They all subsided spontaneously within 2-9 days. No neurological changes were evident. Clinically, our patients' illness was identical to that seen in the cases described by Lundberg and Middleton et al. Mejlszenkier et al. and Ando et al. reported that the myositis following influenza was clinically different from childhood idiopathic polymyositis ; however, in one of our patients we could not clearly differentiate these diseases.
