Abstract
We present a case of traumatic injury of the colon by compressed air. Elevated levels of urinary myoglobin, creatinine phosphokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase indicating rhabdomyolysis were noted. In this type of injury, rhabdomyolysis related to acute peripheral circulatory failure may occur because of obstruction of venous return to the heart following a great increase in intraperitoneal pressure.Entities:
