Rhabdomyolysis Related to Dyskinesia in Parkinson’s Disease

چکیده
Rhabdomyolysis is a life threatening syndrome. It accounts for an estimated 8% to 15% of cases of acute renal failure and is associated with a mortality rate of 5%. In movement disorders, various causes of rhabdomyolysis have been reported including status dystonicus, myoclonus, generalized chorea and parkinsonism-hyperprexia syndrome in Parkinson's disease (PD). Levodopa-induced dyskinesia leading to rhabdomyolysis is a very rare phenomenon in PD. We report a case of 76 years old PD patient with dyskinesia and rhabdomyolysis.

Relation of Parkinson’s Disease to Rhabdomyolysis: an Overview
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is neurological disorder developed due to hyposecretion of dopamine; a neurotransmitter released by nerve cells to send signals to other nerve cells. There is loss of dopamine generating cells leading to the formation of lewy bodies inside the neurons. This leads to many motor and non-motor dysfunctions. Movement of individuals is mostly affected. Levodopa treatment has...
متن کاملDiabetes Increases the Incidence of Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia in Parkinson’s Disease; A Case-Control Study
Background and Objective: Dyskinesia is a debilitating complication of Parkinsonchr('39')s disease (PD), which appears due to some known risk factors. The effect of diabetes and high plasma glucose on the manifestation of dyskinesia has been evaluated in just a few previous reports. The current study aimed to assess the mentioned correlation. Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, ...
متن کاملDissimilar mechanistic background of peripheral and orofacial hyperkinesia in patients with Parkinson’s disease and levodopa-induced dyskinesia
Introduction: Long-term levodopa treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is frequently complicated by spontaneously occurring involuntary muscle movements called dyskinesia. The exact pathological mechanism of this complication has not yet been elucidated. We have previously demonstrated that in PD patients the vulnerability to develop peripheral but not orofacial dyskinesia is associated w...
متن کاملBehavioral Relaxation Training for Parkinson’s Disease Related Dyskinesia and Comorbid Social Anxiety
Effects of brief Behavioral Relaxation Training (BRT) on anxiety and dyskinesia of a 57-year-old female, with an 11-year history of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and 18-months post-deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus, were evaluated. Multiple process and outcome measures were used including the Clinical Anxiety Scale (CAS), Subjective Unit of Distress (SUD) rating and Abbreviated Treat...
متن کاملSHORT REPORT Duration of amantadine benefit on dyskinesia of severe Parkinson’s disease
Background: Recent short-term studies suggested that amantadine (Ama) might ameliorate dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson’s disease. A double-blind study programmed over 12 months was designed to assess the duration of the antidyskinetic effect of amantadine on levodopa induced dyskinesia. Methods: 40 patients treated for 7.5 (2.2) years with levodopa (729.3 (199.4) mg/day) and dopaminoagoni...
