Abstract

A 50-year-old woman with metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma of the ovary had increased activities of creatine kinase (CK; EC 2.7.3.2), CK-MB isoenzyme, lactate dehydrogenase (LD; EC 1.1.1.27), and LD-2 isoenzyme in her serum. The isoenzyme activities did not show a pattern of increasing, then decreasing. Clinical findings, including electrocardiograms, did not support the diagnosis of myocardial infarction. We suggest that high activities of CK-MB and LD-2 in serum may serve as a marker of rhabdomyosarcoma.
