−
*'''Malignant hyperthermia'''
−
*Pigs, dogs, humans
−
*Possibly a cellular defect resulting in high intacellular calcium ion concentration
−
**-> Activates myofibrillar ATPase -> rapid intracellular glycolysis -> increase in body heat -> denature protein -> cell death -> leakage of cellular content -> oedema
−
*Grossly:
−
**Muscles are pale, soft and exudative
−
*Histologically:
−
**Segmental hypercontraction
−
**Monophasic, multifocal [[Muscles Degenerative - Pathology#Necrosis|segmental necrosis]]
−
*Inherited
−
*Triggered by halothane anaesthesia, stress of handling, transportation or slaughter
