A case of nonfatal Legionnaires' disease was complicated by rhabdomyolysis, myoglobinuria, and acute nonoliguric renal failure. It was not determined whether the rhabdomyolysis was secondary to direct toxic effect of the organism or due to a circulating factor causing muscle necrosis. This case provides additional evidence that rhabdomyolysis with subsequent renal failure may be a serious compl...

متن کاملMcArdle's disease presenting as acute renal failure.
In 1951, McArdle described a glycogen storage disorder which presents primarily as a myopathy. It is characterized by muscle pain, weakness and exercise intolerance with elevated creatine kinase from rhabdomyolysis. The pathophysiology involves a deficiency of myophosphorylase enzyme resulting in an inability to degrade glycogen stores. We present a novel case of McArdle disease (glycogen stora...
