Two patients were investigated for unexplained increases in troponin T. In the first patient, who had rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure, troponin T reached a peak value of 13.50 micrograms/L (67.5-fold the upper reference limit). The second patient had chronic renal failure and the troponin T peak value was 2.85 micrograms/L (14.3-fold the upper reference limit). Clinical investigations indicated no evidence of myocardial damage. Serum or plasma specimens were analyzed for total creatine kinase (CK), CK-2 mass, CK-2 isoform ratio, myoglobin, troponin T, troponin I, and myosin light chains; all except troponin I were at above-normal concentrations. We also investigated six additional renal patients with above-normal troponin T; troponin I was slightly increased in only one of these six patients. Our findings demonstrate discordance between results for troponin T and troponin I in renal patients.
