Acute rhabdomyolysis in a young woman with moderate COVID-19
2021, IDCasesCitation Excerpt :Early fluid rehydration is the most important measure for the prevention of AKI [2]. Various viral infections such as influenza A and B, herpes simplex, adenovirus, echovirus, human immunodeficiency virus, and cytomegalovirus, can cause rhabdomyolysis [3,4]. Recently, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has also been reported as a cause of rhabdomyolysis [5–7].
Weakness and elevated creatinine kinase as the initial presentation of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
2020, American Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :Rhabdomyolysis has been associated with a variety of viral and bacterial infections. The common reported acute viral infection associated with rhabdomyolysis include influenza, parainfluenza, Epstein-Barr virus, Cytomegalic virus, Herpes Simplex virus, and Human Immunodeficiency Virus as well as other respiratory tract pathogens [7-12]. To our knowledge, SARS-CoV-2 is rarely associated with rhabdomyolysis and the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 induced rhabdomyolysis was not well documented and reported.
Echovirus 30 detection in an outbreak of acute myalgia and rhabdomyolysis, Brazil 2016–2017
2019, Clinical Microbiology and InfectionCitation Excerpt :However, it is worth pointing out that the number of E-30 is probably higher than this because some EV-positive specimens did not produce EV-positive amplicons. Although the classic symptoms of the rhabdomyolysis consist of muscle pain, weakness and dark urine, it is not common that all of these symptoms are present in the same patient [7]. However, in this study, the dark urine, myalgia and high levels of CPK were markedly present in most of the patients (Table 1).
