A case of cardiac injury and acute renal failure induced by electrical burn.

Reported is a case of electrical burn associated with cardiac injury and acute renal failure in a 21-year-old man. After coming into contact with a high-tension cable, he became drowsy and oliguria developed. Twenty-four hemodialyses were required. Although the ECG findings revealed an inferior wall myocardial infarction, neither cardiac scintigram (201TlCl) nor ultrasonic cardiography revealed any local lesions. In this case the cardiac damage following electrical burn appeared different from true myocardial infarction.

In the mitral valve replacement with Starr-Edwards prosthetic ball valve, the major thromboembolism occurred in 20% of the patients with the silastic ball valve series compared with 6% in those with a metal ball valve series. 2. The anticoagulant effect of Warfarin became stable and the occurrence of thromboembolism was reduced by the addition of Bucolome.
