Viral myositis with secondary rhabdomyolysis: a confirmed case and literature review
Keywords:
rhabdomyolysis, viral myositis, Coxsackie virusAbstract
Rhabdomyolysis is a severe syndrome that can produce acute renal failure and even death. Causative mechanisms of rhabdomyolysis include various viruses, among which are the Coxsackie viruses. We report the case of a 36-year-old woman who had rhabdomyolysis due to Coxsackie A9 virus, with severe muscle involvement, though with no important kidney damage. She recovered with intravenous hydration and alkalinization of the urine.
