Intoxicação aguda por sulfato de cobre: caso clínico

Abstract

A intoxicação aguda pelo sulfato de cobre é rara e frequente- mente acidental. Manifesta-se por náuseas, vómitos, diarreia, anemia hemolítica e, nos casos mais graves, insufi ciência renal, insufi ciência hepática e coma. Os autores descrevem um caso clínico de intoxicação voluntária por sulfato de cobre, cujas principais manifestações clínicas foram náuseas, vómitos esverdeados, diarreia, hipotensão, icterícia e desorientação temporo-espacial. Laboratorialmente traduziu-se por anemia hemolítica com necessidade de terapêutica transfu- sional, disfunção renal (elevação do azoto ureico e da creatinina, e hematúria), e elevação do cobre sérico e urinário, atingindo valores máximos de 2,6 mg/L (N: 0,7-1,4 mg/L) e 1,1 mg/24h, (N <0,1 mg/24h), respectivamente. Realizou terapêutica de suporte e específi ca, com D-penicilamina, com evolução favorável.

Acute copper poisoning is rare and frequently accidental. Nau- seas, vomiting, diarrhoea and haemolytic anaemia are its usual manifestations, while severe poisoning results in renal and /or hepatic insuffi ciency and coma. The authors describe a clinical case of voluntary acute copper sulphate poisoning manifested by gastrointestinal symptoms (nauseas, vomiting of a green liquid and diarrhoea), hypotension, jaundice and mental dysfunction. The laboratory results revealed a transfusion dependent haemolytic anaemia, renal dysfunction (rise of blood urea nitrogen and creatinine, as well as haematuria) and elevated serum and urine copper levels, reaching 2.6 mg/L (0.7-1.4) and 1.1 mg/24h, (< 0.1 mg/24h). The patient was treated with D-penicillamine with a favourable outcome.
