Lightning Injury with Multi-System Involvement

Abstract

Lightning leads to trauma and disability such as burns, hearing loss, blindness, cardiac arrhythmia, cardiac arrest, stroke, kidney injury, and can also lead to death. Such cases are seldom reported, and hence their database is scanty. We present a case of a 40-year-old female with lightning injury with four such manifestations, which is not commonly encountered. We have elaborated on these complications of lightning injury and their timely management, which has led us to good patient outcome.
