Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a classically unapparent pharmacogenetic disorder of the skeletal muscles triggered by inhalational anesthetics or depolarizing muscle relaxants. The disposition to MH is inherited in an autosomal-dominant manner and is primarily due to mutations in the gene for the ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1). The present study intended to analyze whether mild muscular symptoms (elevation of the resting CK, cramps in the calves, slight calf hypertrophy) may be associated with susceptibility to MH and/or with histopathological changes.
