  • Title: [Malignant hyperthermia, chronic alcoholism and tubular aggregates (author's transl)].
    Author: Gullotta F, Wierich W, Dieckmann J.
    Journal: Prakt Anaesth; 1976 Dec; 11(6):410-5. PubMed ID: 1013054.
    Abstract:
    A 24-year-old chronic alcoholic survived malignant hyperthermia which developed in connection with maxillo-facial operation. Electron-microscopic investigations of muscle biopsies disclosed so called tubular aggregates. The possible relations between these structures and the occurrence of malignant hyperthermia on the basis of an alcoholic myopathy are discussed. People suffering from idiopathic recurrent myoglobinuria have to be regarded as patients-at-risk.
