Rhabdomyolysis is a severe condition involving the breakdown of skeletal muscle fibers, leading to the release of muscle components into the bloodstream, which can lead to potential complications such as acute kidney injury and electrolyte imbalances. The etiology of rhabdomyolysis is multifactorial, encompassing traumatic, exertional, metabolic, infectious, toxic, and genetic causes.
