Abstract

An 86-year-old patient with advanced prostatic cancer who was treated with LH-RH agonist (Leuplin 3.75 mg) developed fever, malaise, fatigability and anuria 13 days after the treatment. Rhabdomyolysis was suggested by laboratory data (GOT, LDH, Mb, Aldolase, CPK). There was no predisposing factor other than LH-RH agonist as the cause of drug-induced rhabdomyolysis.
