Rhabdomyolysis is an acute life-threatening condition that can occur in childhood secondary to many causes. The authors report the case of a 3-year-old male child who presented with acute rhabdomyolysis. The peak plasma creatine kinase level was extremely high. The 2 main causes of rhabdomyolysis in childhood are viral myositis and trauma, which can sometimes lead to acute renal failure. The highest creatine kinase levels reported in the literature so far was a 6-digit level in 2014 case report. In this study, the authors report the case of a 7-digit creatine kinase level in a child secondary to viral myositis who did not require renal dialysis.

Purpose: The inconsistencies and variations of creatine kinase level due to modifiable and non-modifiable factors were the basis of this study. The aim was to find out the relationships between creatinine and creatine kinase in the blood of somatotypes.    Methods: The 122 males, aged 10 to 20 years, were classified according to their somatotypes. Somatotypes were measured by the ISAK method. By standard laboratory methods, creatinine and creatine kinase estimate. The IBM SPSS version 24 is used for calculation. One way ANOVA followed by post hoc tests was performed to compare the variables among the three groups (p<0.05).   Results: Creatinine level in the blood insignificantly deferred among the three somatotypes. The significant differences (p<0.05) were found in creatine kinase level in the blood and creatinine/creatine kinase ratio among the three dominant Somatotypes. Creatine Kinase was significantly higher in Ectomorphs (212 U/L) than Endomorphs. Ectomorphs and mesomorphs have crossed normal creatine kinase levels (35 -175 U/L). The creatinine/creatine kinase ratio was found highest in endomorphs and lowest in the ectomorphs and significantly differed in three Somatotypes.   Conclusion: Creatinine production remains the same, indicating production of Creatinine is independent of specific body types. A significant higher Creatine Kinase level in Ectomorphs over Endomorphs showed fat content was not associated with it. Significant differences in Creatinine / Creatine Kinase ratio among Somatotypes suggested its relevance between cellular and morphological relationships and might uses as biomarkers.

Statin myopathy can occur at anytime during use. This chapter discusses an approach to diagnosis, and emphasizes management considerations, including awareness of statin metabolism by the cytochrome P-450 system. A statin must be discontinued in any patient with evidence of myopathy or myalgias. A muscle biopsy should be done in cases that do not improve clinically or by creatine kinase level. It is important to note that there are cases of apparent statin myopathy which transform into a chronic autoimmune inflammatory myopathy. Antibodies to hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase have recently been identified in the majority of patients with autoimmune statin myopathy and this test may give further weight to treat with immunotherapy.
