    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 6 year-old boy with rhabdomyolysis involving only the inferior limbs. It was complicated by renal failure with anuria and intravenous coagulopathy and associated with encephalitis. Virologic investigations showed a recent infection due to Coxsackie B5 virus. Full recovery was observed after symptomatic treatment with peritoneal dialysis, exchange transfusion and heparin therapy.
