Rare Complications of Seizures in End-Stage Renal Disease: A Case Report

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) typically present with uremic symptoms. CKD causes renal osteodystrophy, which leads to disturbances in mineral and bone metabolism. Pathological bone fractures after seizures activity has been reported in l...

description Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) typically present with uremic symptoms. CKD causes renal osteodystrophy, which leads to disturbances in mineral and bone metabolism. Pathological bone fractures after seizures activity has been reported in literature. In this study, we present what we consider the first case of combined bilateral femoral neck fractures, bilateral temporomandibular joint dislocations, and right shoulder anterior fracture dislocation in a patient who had a seizure activity due to electrolyte imbalance resulting from ESRD. The patient is a 36-year-old man with CKD that progressed to ESRD. Joint dislocations and bone fractures are rare complications of seizures activity. Diagnosis is usually delayed due to the low prevalence of these complications after seizures. Clinicians should always bear in mind that ESRD places patients at high risk of these rare complications.
