COMBINED NEPHROTOXICITY OF GENTAMICIN AND METHOXYFLURANE ANAESTHESIA IN MAN
A Case Report
Department of Anesthesia, Stanford University School of Medicine Stanford, California 94305
Vererans Administration Hospital Palo Alto, California 94304, U.S.A.
The clinical and biochemical findings are decribed in a patient who developed nephrotoxicity due to the combined effects of methoxyflurane anaesthesia and gentamicin. Following methoxyflurane anaesthesia mild nephrotoxicity occurred which rapidly increased in severity when gentamicin therapy was commenced, suggesting that the nephrotoxicity of these two drugs may be additive.
