title: [Postoperative rhabdomyolysis following surgery of a pheochromocytoma].
abstract: The authors reports one case of post operative rhabdomyolysis after surgery of pheochromocytomas. The diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis suspected on acute renal failure was confirmed on the increase of CPK and myoglobin blood levels. The findings on physical examination were normal. In this particular case, the operative position seems not implicated in the genesis of this rhabdomyolysis. Nevertheless, the long duration of surgery (4 h) is the major factor encountered in this pathology. Evolution was satisfactory after three haemodialysis sessions.
