Aluminum poisoning in renal failure patients on dialysis.

Diagnostic indications.

• Desferal test: screening for iron overload by measuring iron content

diagnosis of hemochromatosis, orientation of treatment and screening of latent forms in families of hemochromatosis subjects diagnosis of aluminum poisoning, particularly when the aluminum level is between and 3 micromoles/L (27-81 micrograms/L). lists: Primary hemochromatosis not curable by bloodletting.

Deferoxamine is a chelating agent for trivalent cations: ferric ion and trivalent aluminum ion; the complex formation constants are very high, respectively 10 and The affinity of deferoxamine for divalent ions such as Fe ++ , Cu ++ , Zn ++ , It ++ is significantly lower (complex formation constants ≤ 10 Chelation is carried out on a molar basis: 1 g of deferoxamine can theoretically complex 85 mg iron ferric (or 41 mg of Al +++ ).

Thanks to its properties, deferoxamine is able to fix the iron free from plasma or cells to form the ferrioxamine complex.

Urinary excretion of ferrioxamine is essentially a reflection of chelation of iron plasma, while fecal elimination mainly reflects chelation of iron intrahepatic. iron linked to ferritin or hemosiderin, but this is relatively unimportant at therapeutic concentrations of deferoxamine. iron of hemoglobin and cytochromes is inaccessible to deferoxamine.

Deferoxamine can also mobilize and chelate aluminum, thereby forming aluminoxamine.

Excretion of both ferrioxamine and aluminoxamine complexes is complete. iron and aluminum in urine and feces, thus reducing pathological deposits of iron or aluminum in the organs.
