Rhabdomyolysis is a serious syndrome due to direct or indirect muscle injury. It results from the death of muscle fibers and the release of their contents into the bloodstream. This can lead to serious complications such as kidney failure. The most common causes are crush injury, overexertion, alcohol abuse and certain medicines and toxic substances.
