Summary

A 26-year-old man with a previous history of external twin bursitis was remitted to our Department for a bone scintigraphy. Before the study, the patient performed an elevated number of intense sprints. Bone scintigraphy showed a bilaterally increased activity in both anterior rectum muscles suggesting rhabdomyolysis. Biochemical studies and MRT confirmed the diagnosis.

Zusammenfassung

Ein 26jähriger Mann mit vorausgehender M.-gastrocnemius-Bursitis wurde zur Skelettszintigraphie in unsere Abteilung überwiesen. Vor der Untersuchung führte der Patient mehrere Kurzstreckensprints durch. Die Skelettszintigraphie ergab eine erhöhte Aktivität in beiden Mm. recti femoris, die auf eine Rhabdomyolyse hinweist. Biochemische Untersuchungen und MRT bestätigten die Diagnose.
