We describe three clinical cases of Surinamese children with rhabdomyolysis with diverse clinical presentation and course. The first patient had rhabdomyolysis because of toxins caused by multiple beestings and developed acute kidney injury. The other two patients had rhabdomyolysis following acute infection with chikungunya and influenza A/H1N1 virus. These cases emphasize that the diverse etiology of rhabdomyolysis should be considered in children in tropical settings.
我们描述了三例苏里南儿童横纹肌溶解症的临床病例,其临床表现和病程各不相同。第一例患者因多次蜂蜇伤引起的毒素而发生横纹肌溶解症,并发展为急性肾损伤。另外两例患者则在感染基孔肯雅热病毒和甲型 H1N1 流感病毒后发生横纹肌溶解症。这些病例强调了在热带地区的儿童中,应考虑横纹肌溶解症的多种病因。
