Abstract :

Aluminium phosphide (ALP) poisoning is common in our region. ALP poisoning can cause severe metabolic acidosis and persistent hypotension which lead to cardiogenic shock and later causes mortality. Oliguric or anuric acute kidney injury is almost seen in all patients with ALP poisoning. Renal replacement therapies are recommended in these patients to improve metabolic acidosis and increase the rate of survival. Here we report two cases of severe acute ALP poisoning treated successfully with peritoneal dialysis.
