Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Associated With Rhabdomyolysis and Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) 2020-07-28 .txt text/plain 784 54 54 title: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Associated With Rhabdomyolysis and Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) 1 A study of 701 SARS-CoV-2 patients by Cheng and colleagues demonstrated that in-hospital mortality increased by almost three-fold in those who had AKI. 2 We report a patient with SARS-CoV-2 who developed AKI likely secondary to rhabdomyolysis and discuss the possible association between cytokine storm as the etiology. A case series of SARS-CoV-related rhabdomyolysis showed the development of AKI with peak CK levels ranging from 7,500 to 340,000 IU/L. 3 Jin and colleagues were the first to describe a 60-year-old man who was admitted with RT-PCR confirmed SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and developed rhabdomyolysis on day 9 th of hospital admission. A retrospective study of 171 SARS-CoV-2 patients showed that CK of more than 185 IU/L, AKI, and requirement of RRT was associated with an increase in mortality. ./cache/cord-296271-85io9yvy.txt ./txt/cord-296271-85io9yvy.txt
