Abstract

Severe hyperkalemia leads to bilateral calf pain and ECG abnormality in a patient with pacemaker.

Hyperkalemia is an electrolyte abnormality that may cause cardiac pacemaker malfunction. Clinically, bilateral calf pain is extremely rare in hyperkalemia. Here we presented a case of a 78-year-old female who had bilateral calf pain with electrocardiographic changes in severe hyperkalemia.
