  • Title: Rhabdomyolysis with cardiac and respiratory involvement.
    Author: Wynne JW, Goslen JB, Ballinger WE.
    Journal: South Med J; 1977 Sep; 70(9):1125-7, 1130. PubMed ID: 897741.
    Abstract:
    A case of acute nontraumatic rhabdomyolysis in a heroin addict is described. In addition to respiratory failure, the patient's course was complicated by life-threatening arrhythmias and electrocardiographic changes compatible with primary cardiac involvement. This case suggests that rhabdomyolysis may involve cardiac muscle on rare occasions.
