Myocardial damage in a 4-year old who ingested bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide – Incidental CK-BB highlighted other tissue toxicity

This case highlights subclinical myocardial toxicity and an unexpected bone remodeling after a pediatric overdose of bisoprolol-hydrochlorothiazide. CK-BB elevation, likely due to osteoclast activity, underscores the importance of monitoring skeletal biomarkers in thiazide exposures. Clinical recovery can occur before biochemical normalization, emphasizing the need for extended follow-up even in asymptomatic cases.

Abstract

This case highlights subclinical myocardial toxicity and an unexpected bone remodeling after a pediatric overdose of bisoprolol-hydrochlorothiazide. CK-BB elevation, likely due to osteoclast activity, underscores the importance of monitoring skeletal biomarkers in thiazide exposures. Clinical recovery can occur before biochemical normalization, emphasizing the need for extended follow-up even in asymptomatic cases.
