Angelova et al. (2022) conducted a case report in Parainfluenza-induced rhabdomyolysis and myositis (n=2). Human parainfluenza virus (HPIV) infection was evaluated. Human parainfluenza viruses can induce a spectrum of muscle damage in children, ranging from benign self-limiting myositis to severe rhabdomyolysis complicated by acute kidney injury.
