Severe rhabdomyolysis following an uncomplicated endoscopic procedure: a case report
Abstract
Rhabdomyolysis in adults after anesthetic administration is uncommon in those without underlying risk factors. We present a 34-year-old female with history of severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), hypothyroidism, and migraines who developed severe rhabdomyolysis following an uncomplicated general anesthetic for esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and placement of Bravo esophageal pH monitor.
