- W2071409246 abstract "Heroin addiction is known to cause various medical and neurological complications. We report here a case of rhabdomyolysis following heroin abuse, in which a neurological lesion mimicking transverse myelitis was also noted. A 29-year-old man was found comatose in a kneeling position one day after a heroin overdose. On admission, he was awake, yet with total paralysis of his lower legs. Physical examination revealed marked swelling and tenderness of the four limbs, especially the lower extremities. Deep tendon reflexes and positional sense were absent in both legs; however, pin-prick sense was preserved. Transverse myelitis or spinal cord vasculitis was the initial working diagnosis. Laboratory tests disclosed significantly elevated creatinine kinase of 146289 U/L. Though suffering transient acute renal failure, his neurological abnormalities gradually improved over four weeks and a left foot drop was the only residual lesion at discharge. Rhabdomyolysis, a well defined complication following heroin use, may also cause concomitant neurological symptoms, for which careful differential diagnosis is warranted. With the increasing number of heroin addicts in Taiwan, more cases with rhabdomyolysis-induced neurological symptoms may be observed in the future." @default.
