DHS is rarely seen but a major hindrance to daily function in affected patients. DHS has been associated with movement disorders, neuromuscular disorders, and electrolyte and endocrine abnormalities. DHS has also been seen in survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) years after irradiation. HL survivors are also at risk for endocrine hypogonadism after chemotherapy. We present the case of a 58-year-old male HL survivor with dropped head and limited strength in his atrophic neck extensor muscles. Laboratory testing and imaging, nerve conduction studies, electromyography, and muscle biopsy of the neck extensors revealed myopathic and neurogenic changes. Conservative management was unsuccessful. With a desire to avoid surgical fixation, he asked his primary care physician to check his testosterone levels, which returned as low normal. Within 4 months of starting testosterone therapy, he no longer experienced dropped head.</p>","PeriodicalId":39645,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Neuromuscular Disease","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40480313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
