Abstract

A 25-year-old man was admitted to our emergency department (ED) with progressive paralysis in both upper/lower extremities. His serum potassium level was very low. Laboratory testing ruled out renal potassium wasting. A dietary history revealed that he had been consuming 2-4 liters of cola per day for six years. We present a case of hypokalaemic myopathy induced by chronic cola consuming.

Özet

Acil servisimize 25 yaşında bir erkek hasta her iki alt/üst extremitesinde yaygın kas güçsüzlüğü ile başvurdu. Hastanın serum K+ düzeyi çok düşük olarak tespit edildi. Böbrek testleri ile böbrekten K+ kaybı ekarte edildi. Diyet anamnezinde hastanın son 6 yıldır günde ortalama olarak 2-4 litre kola tükettiği ortaya çıktı. Bu yazıda kronik kola tüketiminin neden olduğu hipokalemik bir olguyu sunduk.
