Preferred Label : Myoglobinuria, acute recurrent, autosomal recessive;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Alternative titles and symbols : Myoglobinuria, familial paroxysmal paralytic; Rhabdomyolysis, acute recurrent;
Description : Recurrent myoglobinuria is characterized by recurrent attacks of rhabdomyolysis associated
with muscle pain and weakness and followed by excretion of myoglobin in the urine.
Renal failure may occasionally occur. Onset is usually in early childhood under the
age of 5 years. Unlike the exercise-induced rhabdomyolyses such as McArdle syndrome
(232600), carnitine palmitoyltransferase deficiency (255110; 255120), and the Creteil
variety of phosphoglycerate kinase deficiency (311800), the attacks in recurrent myoglobinuria
no relation to exercise, but are triggered by intercurrent illnesses, commonly upper
respiratory tract infections. (Ramesh and Gardner-Medwin, 1992). Severe rhabdomyolysis
is a major clinical feature of anesthetic-induced malignant hyperthermia (145600),
an autosomal dominant disorder.;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the lipin 1 gene (LPIN1, 605518.0001);
Laboratory abnormalities : Myoglobinuria; Increased serum creatine kinase;
