Infectious mononucleosis is typically a self-limiting illness though it can cause serious complications. On the other hand, rhabdomyolysis can activate after intense exertion, drugs, or infections. We present a report of a patient who presented with infectious mononucleosis and developed rhabdomyolysis that was complicated by acute kidney injury requiring hemodialysis, which makes it the eighth most reported case worldwide according to our review. Our aim is to bring the attention of clinicians to the fact that serious complications like rhabdomyolysis can happen following such a common viral infection.
传染性单核细胞增多症通常是一种自限性疾病,尽管它可能会引起严重并发症。另一方面,横纹肌溶解症可在剧烈运动、药物或感染后引发。我们报告了一例患者,该患者患有传染性单核细胞增多症并发展为横纹肌溶解症,且并发急性肾损伤,需要进行血液透析。根据我们的综述,这是全球第八例报告病例。我们的目的是引起临床医生对以下事实的关注:像横纹肌溶解症这样的严重并发症可能在这种常见病毒感染后发生。
