Crush syndrome
Crush syndrome (also traumatic rhabdomyolysis, Bywaters' syndrome, or smiling death) is a medical condition characterized by major shock and kidney failure after a crushing injury to skeletal muscle. It should not be confused with crush injury, which is the compression of the arms, legs, or other parts of the body that causes muscle swelling and/or neurological disturbances in the affected areas of the body, while crush syndrome is a localized crush injury with systemic manifestations.
