Rhabdomyolysis after tourniquet use in proximal tibial osteotomy: a case report and review of the literature

Abstract

Rhabdomyolysis following pneumotic tourniquet use is a very rare complication. In this case report we aimed to present an unusual tourniquet complication following proximal tibial osteotomy.
A 55 year old female patient was operated for genu varum in our clinic. Postoperatively an anuria developed, liver and kidney function test levels increased. She was diagnosed with acute rhabdomyolysis and an agressive treatment was begun.
