dc.description.abstractBackground: Diabetic amyotrophy, also known as diabetic proximal neuropathy, is a rare neuropathic complication of diabetes mellitus. It is most commonly characterized by severe pain in the hip and thigh, followed by asymmetric weakness and wasting of the proximal muscles of the lower limbs.Case Report: This paper presents the case of a 68-year-old man with an 8-month history of poorly controlled Type-2 diabetes mellitus who developed progressive asymmetrical weakness and atrophy in his left thigh. After a physical examination, magnetic resonance imaging, and electrophysiological studies, diabetic amyotrophy was diagnosed. Conclusion: Physicians should consider the possibility of diabetic amyotrophy in patients with diabetes mellitus who exhibit primary involvement of proximal muscles of the lower limbs, marked by pain, weakness, and atrophy.en_US
