McArdle disease is a genetic disorder that leads to impaired glycogenolysis in the muscle, resulting in exercise intolerance, fatigue, myalgias, and basal elevation of creatine kinase (CK). We report a case of a young woman with McArdle disease who had an episode of acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring temporary hemodialysis (HD), with subsequent complete recovery of renal function. We aim to report a rare clinical presentation of an already rare disease and discuss the possible causes involved; therefore, contributing to a better knowledge of the disease.
麦克尔迪氏病是一种遗传性疾病,会导致肌肉中糖原分解受损,从而引起运动不耐受、疲劳、肌痛以及肌酸激酶(CK)基础水平升高。我们报告一例患有麦克尔迪氏病的年轻女性病例,该患者发生了急性肾损伤(AKI),需要进行临时血液透析(HD),随后肾功能完全恢复。我们旨在报告一种罕见疾病的罕见临床表现,并讨论其中可能涉及的原因;因此,有助于更好地了解该疾病。
