Normotensive, Sprague-Dawley (S-D) and spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats were subjected to aortic ligature. The systolic blood pressure of S-D rats was increased by +/- 80 mm Hg, whereas the blood pressure of SH rats with pre-existent hypertension increased only slightly, +/- 9 mm Hg. The S-D rats developed myocardial and renal infarcts as well as polyarteritis nodosa; the SH rats developed testicular and microadrenocortical infarcts only. Aortic-ligated S-D rats had elevated creatine phosphokinase, serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, and lactic hydrogenase levels and manifested hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, and elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels. Corticosterone levels increased in aortic-ligated S-D rats but decreased in SH rats. Collateralization about the site of aortic ligature appeared to be the same in both strains. It is suggested that the acutely induced hypertension in S-D rats rather than SH rats and differences in adrenal steroidogenesis between the two strains would best account for the dichotomous cardiovascular response to aortic constriction.

Rhabdomyolysis can be caused by aetiologic completely different factors. It can occur only few hours following beginning of enteritis and refusal of ingestion. We report the case of a 5 month old male infant, which showed the clinical characteristics of a hypertonic dehydration on admission to hospital. Serum levels of transaminases, creatinine, urea, lactated hydrogenase, creatine kinase and urinary excretion of myoglobin were highly elevated. Forced diuresis, compensation of acidosis and electrolyte disturbances could prevent the development of an acute renal failure--the most important complication of rhabdomyolysis. The boy could be discharged without any residuals of this episode of disease.
