Recurrent rhabdomyolysis in a patient with a history of rhabdomyolysis due to severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a hemorrhagic fever syndrome that is endemic to East Asia. Here, we describe a case of rhabdomyolysis, thought to have been caused by pemafibrate (which was prescribed for hyperlipidemia) or bacterial infection, in a patient who had experienced S...

description Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a hemorrhagic fever syndrome that is endemic to East Asia. Here, we describe a case of rhabdomyolysis, thought to have been caused by pemafibrate (which was prescribed for hyperlipidemia) or bacterial infection, in a patient who had experienced SFTS-induced rhabdomyolysis 4 years ago. This case suggests that SFTS causes muscle degeneration and can lead to recurrent rhabdomyolysis as a long-term complication.
