Abstract

We present a case in which a pediatric cerebral palsy patient developed intraoperative myoglobinuria and rhabdomyolysis with elevated creatine kinase (CK) during prone scoliosis surgery. A diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis was established with the finding of tea-colored urine intraoperatively, and confirmed with elevated urine myoglobin and CK postoperatively. Cerebral palsy patients may develop anesthesia-induced rhabdomyolysis when inhalational anesthetics used.
