Abstract:
A case report and short retrospective study are presented which describe the clinical occurrence of hypomagnesemia in the setting of massive blood transfusion. Hypomagnesemia is an important electrolyte imbalance and in the massively transfused patient is most likely secondary to citrate toxicity.
