Abstract
- We report a case of Wilson's disease, with a rapidly progressive course, in which peritoneal dialysis was performed. The physiopathology of acute features occurring during the course of the disease is reviewed. The different methods for eliminating copper, particularly peritoneal dialysis, are discussed. The authors recall the precautions which are necessary when initiating D-penicillamine therapy.
