Haff disease is the development of rhabdomyolysis (swelling and breakdown of skeletal muscle, with a risk of acute kidney failure) within 24 hours of ingesting fish. ==History== It was first described in 1924 in the vicinity of Königsberg, Germany (now Kaliningrad, Russia) on the Baltic coast, in people staying around the ''haff'' (German: lagoon). Over the subsequent fifteen years, about 1000 cases were reported in people, birds and cats, usually in the summer and fall, and a link was made with the consumption of fish (burbot, eel and pike).〔 Since that time, only occasional reports have appeared of the condition, mostly from the Soviet Union and Germany.〔 In 1997, six cases of Haff disease were reported in California and Missouri, all after the consumption of buffalo fish (''Ictiobus cyprinellus''). In July and August 2010, dozens of people contracted rhabdomyolysis after eating ''Procambarus clarkii'' in Nanjing, China. A month later, the Chinese authorities claimed they were victims of Haff disease. An outbreak was reported in Brooklyn, New York on 18 November 2011, when two household members were stricken by the syndrome after eating buffalo fish. 〔https://a816- health29ssl.nyc.gov/sites/NYCHAN/Lists/AlertUpdateAdvisoryDocuments/2011%20DOHMH%20Haff%20Disease%20advisory.pdf (sign in may be required)〕 On February 4, 2014 two cases of Haff Disease were reported in Cook County, Illinois following the consumption of buffalo fish. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Haff disease」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
