| Abstract |
Report of a case of renal failure with severe myoglobinuria following acute exposure to toluene. The myoglobinuria appeared to be the direct cause of the renal failure, which rapidly became non-oliguric on early administration of intravenous fluids, osmotic diuretics and frusemide. Haemodialysis was performed on 3 occasions. Recovery was complete. |
