Spontaneous rupture of a renal allograft in the early posttransplant period is associated with tachycardia, hypotension, oliguria, swelling, pain, a falling hematocrit level, and tenderness at the transplant site. Occasionally, the ruptured allograft can be saved by control of the hemorrhage. Deep vein thrombophlebitis, a common occurrence after prolonged surgery and cortocosteroid therapy, is less common in renal allograft transplantation, but may be associated with renal vein thrombosis. The simultaneous occurrence of deep vein thrombophlebitis, renal vein thrombosis, and allograft rupture contraindicates anticoagulent therapy. We present a patient in whom ipsilateral deep vein thrombophlebitis developed eight days after a cadaveric renal allograft, followed in two days by hypotension, a falling hematocrit level, oliguria, and a painfall mass at the allograft site. Surgical exploration revealed a ruptured allograft with iliofemoral and renal vein thrombosis and profuse hemorrhage. A transplant nephrectomy was performed.

A heroin addict had rhabdomyolysis with cardiac involvement. The patient was admitted with edema of the right leg and oliguria. Admission diagnoses were right illofemoral thrombophlebitis, acute renal failure, and heroin addiction. Urinalysis was strongly positive for "blood" in the absence of hemolysis or marked hematocyturia, and a diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis was made. Peritoneal dialysis succeeded in lowering blood urea nitrogen and serum potassium levels, but the patient died on the fourth hospital day. Postmortem examination disclosed focal myocardial myolysis, diffuse rhabdomyolysis of the right soleus muscle, and acute renal tubular necrosis. Direct toxicity or hypersensitivity to heroin or an adulterant is considered in the pathogenesis of myolysis.
