Abstract

The cases of acute renal failures due to poisoning treated at the artificial kidney department of the University, Department of Urology in Budapest are received. The patients were readmitted later to check their renal function. Prognosis was best in the group with mercury poisoning where renal function of the survivors was completely restored. Similarly promising are the results in other types of poisoning if the patients can be made to survive the acute period. It is emphasized that if poisoning results in symptoms indicating acute renal failure, the patient must be transferred to an artificial kidney department as soon as possible.
