| Popis: | A very rare case of non-fatal acute massive rhabdomyolysis caused by unintentional prolonged inhalation of liquid gas (consisting of butane and propane) in a previously healthy adult is presented. The immediate diagnosis and intensive symptomatic therapy prevented any other severe complications of rhabdomyolysis, and the patient made a complete recovery without any sequelae. |
