Abstract

The paper reports a fatal case of exertion heat stroke. The etiopathogenetic, clinical and therapeutic aspects of the case are described; although rarely observed, this pathology must be taken into account by the intensive care unit in order to ensure rapid aid and treatment in an attempt to modify the severe prognosis due to multiorgan damage which increases with the intensity and duration of hyperthermia.
