To summarize the etiology and clinical characteristics of children with myopathic elevated creatine kinase (CK) levels. The degrees of elevated CK as well as lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels in different myopathy were analyzed.The clinical data of 235 cases characterized as myopathic hyper-CK-emia from January 2004 to December 2011 were collected and analyzed. A retrospective analysis of LDH and AST levels according to CK in part of the patients were reviewed.Of the 235 cases, 180 were male and 55 female. According to the age at which hyper-CK-emia was diagnosed, 64 cases were under 6 months, 90 between 6 months and 3 years, 50 between 3 and 6 years and 31 between 6 and 14 years. Their CK levels signifi...
