Cocainehyphen;induced Rhabdomyolysis Findings on Bone Scintigraphy

摘要

During the examination of a young patient with acute renal failure, bone imaging was performed for evaluation of possible osteomyelitis. Marked soft tissue activity was seen on the bone scan. The patient admitted to recent intravenous cocaine use. Vasoconstriction from cocaine use was thought to induce rhabdomyolysis, which led to acute renal failure with myoglobulinuria.
