<unk>  is a severe glassy or waxy hyaline<unk>  or necrosis of skeletal muscles in acute infectious diseases; a prototype of coagulative necrosis. The condition was named by Friedrich Albert von<unk> . It is a hyaline<unk>  of skeletal muscles such as rectus abdominis and diaphragm, and occurs in severe toxaemia as typhoid fever. It is also seen in electrical burns. Grossly the muscles appear pale and friable; microscopically, the muscle fibres are swollen, have a loss of cross striations, and show a hyaline appearance. Rupture and small hemorrhage may complicate the lesion. Coagulative necrosis occurs here.
