Rhabdomyolysis Occurred Again after Changing Chemotherapy Regimens in Ovarian Cancer: A Case Report
The occurrence of rhabdomyolysis is mainly caused by certain specific chemotherapy drugs such as gemcitabine and paclitaxel and is not closely related to other factors such as the patient's constitution or genetic factors. And the occurrence of rhabdomyolysis can be caused by conventional doses of drugs rather than high dose. If rhabdomyolysis occurs and is completely relieved, chemotherapy may be considered again depending on the patient's condition and physical condition. However, caution should be exercised in selecting drugs to avoid recurrence of rhabdomyolysis, and the condition should be closely monitored.
