Prominent Parkinsonism after Rhabdomyolysis in a Patient with Dementia
Background:Rhabdomyolysis is a syndrome of skeletal muscle breakdown with leakage of muscle contents into blood stream. Variable disorders affecting muscle membrane or its energy supply can cause rhabdomyolysis. Case Report: We report a patient with rapidly progressive dementia who developed severe...

Case Report: We report a patient with rapidly progressive dementia who developed severe parkinsonism after rhabdomyolysis in the course of the illness.
