ABSTRACT
Recently, self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA) diving's popularity has been increasing tremendously. Most diving injuries are related to the behavior of the gas and to pressure changes during descent and ascent. A scuba diver at depths greater than 7 m may accumulate a tissue partial presure of nitrogen large enough that, on ascent to the surface, nitrogen exist the tissues rapidly, forming bubbles in the blood and other organs, which is known as decompression sickness (DCS). Although both of these bubble disorders can, in theory, cause injury to skeletal muscles (rhabdomyolysis), the case are report here demonstrates the potential for massive muscle necrosis after scuba diving. We report a case of rhabdomyolysis presented with general weakness after scuba diving.
