OBJECTIVE
Rhabdomyolysis is a syndrome caused by skeletal muscle injury. Its etiology is broad with special interest when it is manifested as intra or post-anesthetic complication. This report aimed at describing two cases of rhabdomyolysis in the postoperative period of long procedures in morbidly
Rhabdomyolysis (RML) can complicate prolonged surgery and may lead to renal failure and death. Obese patients are at high risk for this complication. This complication has been recently described in bariatric surgery and prolonged spine surgery, but it is not well recognized in patients undergoing
We report the case of a morbidly obese patient who developed rhabdomyolysis with acute renal failure, hepatic dysfunction, and an increase of cardiac troponin-1 after total knee arthroplasty. Postoperative rhabdomyolysis has a wide range of triggers and differential diagnoses that should be
We generally believe that obese patients are faced on higher risk of developing perioperative complications. Rhabdomyolysis is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition caused by the release of injured skeletal muscle components into the circulation. It usually results from mechanical damage
Post-operative rhabdomyolysis is a rare but life-threatening condition. Less than ten cases have been described in the otolaryngic literature and, to our knowledge, no reports exist in the setting of oral reconstructive free tissue transfer. Case report presentation. We discuss the clinical course
Urologic surgery performed in the lithotomy position sometimes results in the serious complications of rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure. Patients in which this occurs are almost always found to have compartmental syndromes. The two patients we present herein did not show any sign of a
OBJECTIVE
We report the presentation and management of rhabdomyolysis involving shoulder girdle and upper arm muscles in a morbidly obese patient after prolonged laparoscopic surgery.
METHODS
A 41-yr-old morbidly obese woman presented for laparoscopic abdominal hysterectomy. She had hypertension and
OBJECTIVE
Laparoscopic approaches for weight reduction in the morbidly obese have become common with more than 50,000 bariatric surgical procedures being performed in 2001. The objective of this article is to raise awareness among surgeons of a new complication of rhabdomyolysis from this frequent
BACKGROUND
Rhabdomyolysis is a well-known cause of renal failure and is most commonly caused by ischemia/reperfusion or crush injury. We describe a new cause of this syndrome in a series of 6 patients who underwent necrosis of the gluteal muscles after bariatric surgery, 3 of whom eventually died of
Patients sustaining traumatic injuries are at risk for development of rhabdomyolysis. The effect of obesity on this risk is unknown. This study attempted to characterize the role of obesity in the development of rhabdomyolysis after trauma. This was a retrospective review of all trauma patients with
OBJECTIVE
This report describes a new fatal syndrome observed in adolescent males at the initial presentation of diabetes mellitus. The features include hyperglycemic hyperosmolar coma complicated by a malignant hyperthermia-like picture with fever, rhabdomyolysis, and severe cardiovascular
OBJECTIVE
We evaluate the contemporary incidence and consequences of postoperative rhabdomyolysis after extirpative renal surgery.
METHODS
We conducted a population based, retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent extirpative renal surgery with a diagnosis of a renal mass or renal cell
We report an observation of acute rhabdomyolysis of gluteus maximum muscles occurring in a non-obese patient installed in supine position that underwent knee arthroscopy under spinal anaesthesia. The patient had insulin-dependent diabetes melitus with documented microangiopathy. The interest of this
OBJECTIVE
To study the epidemiology, risk factors, and outcomes of rhabdomyolysis (RM) after major urologic surgery.
METHODS
The National Inpatient Sample (2003-2011) was used to identify patients who underwent radical prostatectomy, radical or partial nephrectomy, or radical cystectomy.
