isolated asymptomatic elevation of creatine phosphokinase
MONDO:0016103
Isolated hyperCKemia is a condition characterized by elevated levels of an enzyme called creatine kinase in the blood. In affected individuals, levels of this enzyme are typically 3 to 10 times higher than normal. While elevated creatine kinase often accompanies various muscle diseases, individuals with isolated hyperCKemia have no muscle weakness or other symptoms. Some people with this condition have abnormalities of muscle cells that can be seen with a microscope, such as unusual variability in the size of muscle fibers, but these changes do not affect the function of the muscle.

Isolated hyperCKemia
Isolated hyperCKemia is a benign genetic disorder which is characterized by high levels of creatine kinase (an enzyme) in the blood, usually, levels of CK in the blood of people with this disorder are 3 to 10 times higher than average. Unlike what most people experience when their CK blood levels are high, people with this disorder don't experience any symptoms, less commonly, people with isolated hyperCKemia have microscopic muscle cell abnormalities. This condition is a type of caveolinopathy since it is associated with the CAV3 gene, in chromosome 3. Although it is asymptomatic, people with this variant of hyperCKemia have an elevated risk of suffering from malignant hyperthermia.
