full textRhabdomyolysis following acute alcohol intoxication.
The case of a fit young man who developed rhabdomyolysis after a short period of immobilization following acute alcohol intoxication is described. Rhabdomyolysis should be considered in an intoxicated patient presenting with muscle tenderness, particularly after immobilization.
full textChronic thinner intoxication: clinico-pathologic report of a human case.
A 27 year old Mexican male addicted for 12 years to glue-sniffing and thinner inhalation developed neurological and behavioural disturbances which led to hospital admission and death. Autopsy disclosed diffuse cerebral and cerebellar cortex atrophy and giant axonopathy both central and peripheral. The corpus callosum was atrophic secondarily to neuron loss in the neocortex.

Rhabdomyolysis, the disintegration of skeletal muscle, is a common cause of acute renal failure. This clinical entity occurs mainly from 2 sources: traumatic and nontraumatic. Traumatic rhabdomyolysis has been described as crush syndrome during war and natural disasters. In modern or peace time, the majority of cases of rhabdomyolysis are nontraumatic, and alcohol abuse is one of the most commo...
full textRhabdomyolysis and Aminotransferase Activity Due to Acute Intoxication with Psychotropic and Chemical Substances
Background: Rhabdomyolysis is caused by the release of enzymes from skeletal muscles into the blood, which leads to systemic complications with diverse etiologies. This study evaluated the serum aminotransferases in patients with rhabdomyolysis following acute intoxication with either psychotropic drugs or other chemical agents. Methods: This study randomly recruited 140 patients suffering fro...
