title: [Rhabdomyolysis in meningoencephalitis caused by echovirus].
abstract: We report one case of atraumatic rhabdomyolysis associated with Echo group viral encephalitis, not complicated by acute renal failure. Clinical and bio-humoral outlines are described, characterized by favourable evolution despite high muscular enzymatic peaks. We emphasize that the positive course is probably due to the early institution of prophylactic measures, and that, anyway, the subject still remains exposed to major rhabdomyolysis risk in the presence of stress factors, including general anesthesia.
