[Rhabdomyolysis as a complication of chronic alcoholism. Observations in 19 cases].

In 19 chronic alcoholics with rhabdomyolysis the clinical picture demonstrated markedly different degrees of severity of myolysis. Muscle pain, muscle swellings and brown-coloured urine were rare. But symptoms of delirium, at times with cerebral seizures, were frequent at the onset. Renal failure of different degrees was common; five patients had to be dialysed. Two patients died in irreversible shock. Respiratory insufficiency and hypercalcaemia were other complications. Early recognition of the disease is important, because early treatment can prevent acute "myoglobinuric" renal failure.

[Methanol poisoning. Clinical, neuropathologic and computerized tomography findings].

In two case reports, the characteristic clinical, CT-scan and neuropathological findings in acute methanol intoxication are described. The significance of acidosis for the survival rate and development of late sequelae is stressed. After a latency period of several days, one patient developed the rare condition of haemorrhagic leucoencephalopathy with striking CT-scan and morphological findings. The etiology of this complication is discussed. The principle therapeutic procedures including the correction of acidosis, haemodialysis and administration of ethanol and folic acid are outlined.
