[Acute kidney failure in the course of rhabdomyolysis with hemodialysis in personal material from 1995-1999].
Eleven cases (5 F + 6 M; mean age 48.0 years) of acute noninflammatory renal failure (ANRF) in the course of rhabdomyolysis (RBM) were treated with hemodialysis in years 1995-1999. The causes of RBM were the following: ischemia of lower limbs after vascular operations (4 cases), exhausting exercise with rapid body cooling (3 cases), multiorgan failure after traffic accident, acute myositis (1 case), status epilepticus (1 case), rapid clinical course of viral infection (1 case). It was necessary to perform from 1 to 13 hemodialyses in every patient. In nine cases, complete normalization of renal function during 5 to 30 days of therapy was achieved. Two patients died due to multiorgan complications after vascular operations despite effective dialysis therapy. The following correlation were found: positive between initial values of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) activity and creatinine and uric acid concentrations in the blood and negative correlation between CPK and serum calcium concentrations. The higher initial values of CPK activity were observed the more hemodialysis procedures were necessary and the longer time was needed to normalize renal function. On the base of initial, limited up to now, own results it seems that hemodialysis in ANRF in the course of RBM should be started immediately in cases with high activity of CPK in the blood (above 10,000 U/L).
