BACKGROUND Rhabdomyolysis is a syndrome characterized by muscle necrosis and secretion of intracellular muscle components into the blood circulation. Acute compartment syndrome is a potential complication of severe rhabdomyolysis. CASE REPORT We report 3 cases of compartment syndrome-related peripheral neuropathy in alcoholic individuals with rhabdomyolysis. All patients were confirmed to have peripheral neuropathy by electrophysiologic studies. CONCLUSIONS Patients with underlying metabolic abnormalities, such as those related to long-term alcoholism, should be aware that rhabdomyolysis is likely to cause neurological abnormalities.
横纹肌溶解症是一种以肌肉坏死和细胞内肌肉成分分泌入血液循环为特征的综合征。急性筋膜室综合征是严重横纹肌溶解症的一种潜在并发症。病例报告：我们报告了3例横纹肌溶解症的酒精中毒患者发生的与筋膜室综合征相关的周围神经病变。所有患者均通过电生理研究确诊为周围神经病变。结论：有潜在代谢异常的患者，如与长期酗酒相关的患者，应意识到横纹肌溶解症可能会导致神经异常。
