Hemodialysis for Near-Fatal Sodium Phosphate Toxicity in a Child Receiving Sodium Phosphate Enemas

Abstract: Hemodialysis can safely be used as an adjunctive therapy in sodium phosphate toxicity to rapidly reduce serum phosphate levels and increase serum calcium levels in children not responding to conventional management.

“…Thus, they produce a great movement of fluids towards the intestinal lumen, developing a third space that allows the emptying of the sigmoid-rectal fecal contents. Dehydration secondary to the intraluminal hyperosmolar effect of the solution and hypocalcemia secondary to absorption of high phosphorus content [5][6][7] are the main adverse effects of errors in dosing, administration and elimination of the enema. From the pathophysiological point of view, it is important to note that phosphorus is generally absorbed in duodenum and jejunum, but colonic absorption is possible secondary to high concentrations in the rectum 8 .…”

“…A rapid increase in phosphorus produces acute hypocalcemia due to chelation of calcium and precipitation of calcium phosphate salts in soft tissues and kidney. Other mechanisms, such as the decrease in the production of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol and the reduction of the absorption of calcium at the intestinal level, are slower to establish and therefore play a secondary role in cases of intoxication 6,8,9 , but may be important in cases of chronic exposure. In addition, excess phosphorus as inorganic acid and loss of bicarbonate in the intestinal lumen produce metabolic acidosis 6 .…”
