Abstract

Rhabdomyolysis developed in the muscles of the left lower extremity of a 43 year old man leading to myoglobinuria and acute renal failure. The diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis was strengthened by muscle and renal biopsy. The renal functions were restituted after peritoneal dialysis performed four times (12 hours each) within two weeks. The possible role of alcohol or Dalgol intoxication as well the disturbed circulation in the development of rhabdomyolysis is discussed. Authors point out the benefit of peritoneal dialysis in acute renal failure caused by rhabdomyolysis.
