Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) can cause severe isotonic hyponatremia. This study reports a unique case of severe hyponatremia leading to rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure post-TURP.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Urology
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is linked to plasma sodium disturbances.
  • Historically, hypotonic hyponatremia was common, but isotonic solutions now prevail.
  • Isotonic hyponatremia post-TURP is typically mild and asymptomatic.
