Phosphatidate phosphatase-1 (lipin-1) is encoded by LPIN1 gene. Lipin-1
deficiency has been reported as the second most common cause of early-onset
rhabdomyolysis after primary fatty acid oxidation disorders. We report a case of
a 32-year-old Sri Lankan female with a history of more than 10 episodes of
rhabdomyolysis and exercise intolerance since childhood. These episodes were
triggered by infect...
