A Case of Diabetic Ketoacidosis Presented With Severe Rhabdomyolysis-Induced Acute Kidney Injury.

We present a patient who presented with diabetic ketoacidosis and severe rhabdomyolysis-induced acute kidney injury. The patient developed generalized edema, nausea, and vomiting, and his kidney function deteriorated, necessitating renal replacement therapy, despite the successful treatment of his initial conditions. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted to determine the underlying cause of the severe rhabdomyolysis, including autoimmune myopathies, viral infections, and metabolic disorders. A muscle biopsy revealed necrosis and myophagocytosis but no significant inflammation or myositis. The patient's clinical and laboratory results improved with appropriate treatment, including temporary dialysis and erythropoietin therapy, and he was discharged to continue his rehabilitation with home health care.
