Acute renal failure in a woman with McArdle's disease.
McArdle's disease was diagnosed in a 38-year-old woman when exercise-induced rhabdomyolysis, which was accompanied by acute renal failure, was observed to occur. This is the only case that is known to us of acute renal failure due to rhabdomyolysis in a woman with McArdle's disease.
