Popis: | Alterations in the calcium metabolism are a characteristic paraclinical finding in patients with oliguric acute renal failure associated with rhabdomyolysis. A 20-year-old male operated on under general anesthesia developed non-oliguric acute renal failure due to malignant hyperthermia with rhabdomyolysis (urine myoglobin greater than 20,000 nmol/l; reference range less than 0.85 nmol/l). On the 20th postoperative day hypercalcemia was found, reaching a maximum serum level of 3.74 mmol/l (reference range 2.18-2.65 mmol/l) on the 27th postoperative day. Delayed hypercalcemia in non-oliguric acute renal failure associated with rhabdomyolysis has not been reported previously. This case suggests that prolonged control of the serum calcium level should be performed in patients with rhabdomyolysis, even in the absence of oliguria. |
