title: Rhabdomyolysis-induced acute renal failure in a child: a case report.
abstract: Rhabdomyolysis-induced acute renal failure is rare in a child. In this paper, we describe a young girl with this condition who unfortunately succumbed to adult respiratory distress syndrome. Renal biopsy confirmed the presence of tubular myoglobin casts and acute tubular necrosis but no cause for the rhabdomyolysis could be documented.
