Has anyone seen any cases of recurrent rhabdomyolysis or myoglobinuria
associated with emotional stress or tourniquet injury? In our
experience we documented a case of recurrent rhabdomyolysis in a
50-year old male follow
ing a tourniquet injury.
Please document time lapse from the injury to the onset of acute renal
failure. We would appreciate any anecdotal information, case reports or
specific references.
We would appreciate response before Friday, May 9, 1997. Send
information by e-mail to:
