N2  - Heat injury, exertional rhabdomyolysis, and anterior compartment syndrome are all conditions seen in strenuously exercising populations. We report four cases of acute heat injury followed by significant but varying degrees of focal tissue ischemia with rhabdomyolysis. One patient died and all survivors experienced a significant deficit in function. We feel that meticulous attention given to preventive measures may reduce the incidence of this catastrophic event.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
