Mc Ardle's disease is a genetic glycogenosis characterized by the accumulation of glycogen in skeletal muscle secondary to the deficiency of muscle glycogen phosphorylase. The clinical consequences are an exercise intolerance with rapid muscle fatigue and muscle pain combined with a myoglobinuria.

He holds his family's doctor because of an oliguria and a weight gain of 5 kg after one week of skiing and one afternoon of gardening. Moreover he complains of quadriceps muscle pains.
