We present the case of a 42-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren's syndrome treated with adalimumab who developed immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) and trigeminal neuropathy after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination. Trigeminal neuralgia and elevated serum creatine kinase levels emerged 12 days post-vaccination, followed by myalgia in the femoral muscles. IMNM was histologically diagnosed. The pathogenesis may involve molecular mimicry between the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein and autologous tissues triggered by vaccination. This case emphasizes the association between SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, tumor necrosis factor inhibitor, IMNM, and trigeminal neuropathy, as well as the importance of monitoring immune-mediated adverse events following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with autoimmune disease.
