Epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) myopathy.
Two female patients developed a severe, painful proximal myopathy after taking 18--30 g of epsilon-aminocaproic acid daily for 5 weeks. Marked elevations of serum aminotransferases, creatine kinase and aldolase levels were found and the first patient had electromyographic and muscle biopsy changes of an acute monophasic, necrotising myopathy at the height of the illness. Resolution occurred in ...
متن کاملAprotinin But Not e-Aminocaproic Acid Decreases Interleukin-10 After Cardiac Surgery With Extracorporeal Circulation Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study in Patients Receiving Aprotinin and e-Aminocaproic Acid
Background—Extracorporeal circulation induces a systemic inflammatory response, which may adversely affect organ function. One manifestation of this response is increased fibrinolysis. Antifibrinolytic drugs such as aprotinin and e-aminocaproic acid have been effective in reducing fibrinolysis and blood loss after extracorporeal circulation; however, the effects of antifibrinolytic drugs on pro...
متن کاملTHE ENHANCEMENT OF CHLOROFORM-INDUCED PLASMA PROTEOLYTIC ACTMT¥ BY EPSILON AMINOCAPROIC ACID* B~ VIRGINIA H. DONALDSON, M.D., ANn
Proteolytic activity develops in human plasma treated with streptokinase (1), urokinase (2, 3), tissue particles or extracts (4, 5) or chloroform (6). The protease which evolves in each case has been referred to by the generic name, plasmin, and seems to be derived from the same proenzyme, plasminogen (7-10). The activation of plasminogen by streptokinase, urokinase and tissue extracts may be s...
متن کاملHistochemical And Electron Microscopic Diagnosis Of Mitochondrial Myopathy: The First Case Report From Iran
Muscle tissue, skeletal muscle as well as cardiac muscle, is commonly affected in mitochondrial disorders. One explanation for this observation is that muscle tissue has a high-energy demand and therefore is more sensitive to a deficiency of mitochondrial energy production than some other tissues. In mitochondrial disorders, skeletal muscle tissue may be affected primarily by defective respi...
متن کاملHigh Dose, Prolonged Epsilon Aminocaproic Acid Infusion, and Recombinant Factor VII for Massive Postoperative Retroperitoneal Hemorrhage following Splenectomy
The antifibrinolytic agent ε-aminocaproic acid is used to decrease procedural blood loss in a variety of high risk surgeries. The utility of recombinant factor VII administration in massive hemorrhage has also been reported in a variety of settings, though the impact in a surgical context remains unclear. We describe the case of a patient who underwent massive open splenectomy and developed dif...
