Exercise-induced acute renal failure with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome

@#Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is characterized by headache, mental changes, epileptic seizures, visual disturbances, and transient changes in the posterior circulation system of the brain. Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical condition characterized by muscle pain, weakness, dark-colored urine, and elevated creatine kinase levels. The common causes of rhabdomyolysis are trauma, excessive fatigue and intense exercise. A 23-year-old male soldier developed rhabdomyolysis-induced acute kidney injury after intense exercise and secondary PRES. The patient also had generalized convulsive seizures. There is no similar case of PRES from acute renal failure induced by muscle injury previously reported in the literature.
