Lead intoxication in two canines. Biochemical confirmation, specific treatment and review of most reported organic alterations in Veterinary Medicine
Pet poisoning in veterinary medicine occurs relatively often, although it represents a small percentage of the wide variety of pathological entities the generalpractitioner faces in daily practice (bacterial, parasitic, metabolic, traumatic, surgical). In turn, within toxic etiologies, those produced by heavy metals are rarelyreported today (in order of importance, poisonings produced by warfarinrodenticides, pesticides, human use medications, toxins, garbage, veterinary usemedications, toxic plants and foods are described). This report describes two cases of patients that suffered lead poisoning, presenting practically all the clinical signs historically reported by available literature. Despite being a scarcely frequent entity due to the heavy metal’s low availability, we consider that having knowledge aboutthe systems that are affected by such exposure, both chronically and acutely, is very important, irrespective of whether they are chronic or acute, since there arealterations that are lethal, and which when recognized in time, enable making a definite biochemistry diagnosis and establishing a specific healing treatment. But the potential sequels that such poisoning can leave, as well as its specific treatment must not be overlooked. To such end, the need to have veterinarian toxicological laboratories and suitable advising lines in place is emphasized.

Las intoxicaciones en medicina veterinaria de mascotas ocurren con relativa frecuencia, si bien representan un porcentaje menor de la gran variedad deentidades patolo gicas a las que el clí nico se enfrenta en la pra ctica diaria (bacterianas, parasitarias, metabo licas, trauma ticas, quiru rgicas). A su vez dentro delas etiologías toxicas, las producidas por metales, pesados son escasamente reportadas en la actualidad (en orden de importancia se describen intoxicaciones por rodenticidas warfarinicos, pesticidas, medicamentos de uso humano, toxinas, basura, medicamentos de uso veterinario, plantas toxicas y alimentos). En el presente reporte se exponen dos casos de pacientes que sufrieron intoxicacio n con plomo, presenta ndose casi todos los signos clí nicos que son histo ricamente reportados por la literatura. Si bien es cierto que es una entidad poco frecuente debido a la baja accesibilidad al metal pesado, consideramos que es sumamente importante tener conocimiento de los sistemas que son afectados por dicha exposicio n de forma cro nica y de forma aguda ya que hay alteraciones que son letales y que, reconocie ndolas a tiempo, podremos realizar un diagno stico bioquí mico definitivo e instaurar un tratamiento específico que es curativo. Pero sin dejar de lado las potenciales secuelas que dicha intoxicacio n puede dejar, así como tambie n el tratamiento especí fico. Se hace hincapie en la necesidad de contar con laboratorios toxicolo gicos veterinarios y lí neas de asesoramiento para tal fin As intoxicaço es em medicina veterina ria de animais de estimaça o ocorrem com relativa freque ncia, embora representem uma percentagem menor da grande variedade de entidades patolo gicas que o clí nico enfrenta na pra tica dia ria (bacterianas, parasita rias, metabo licas, trauma ticas, ciru rgicas). Por sua vez, dentro das etiologias to xicas, atualmente sa o raramente relatadas aquelas produzidas por metais pesados (em ordem de importa ncia, sa o descritas intoxicaço es por raticidas varfarina, pesticidas, medicamentos de uso humano, toxinas, lixo, medicamentos de uso veterina rio, plantas to xicas e comida). Neste relato sa o apresentados dois casos de pacientes que sofreram intoxicaça o por chumbo, apresentando quase todos os sinais clí nicos historicamente relatados na literatura. Embora seja verdade que se trata de uma entidade rara devido a baixa acessibilidade ao metal pesado, consideramos que e de extrema importa ncia o conhecimento dos sistemas que sa o afectados por esta exposiça o de forma cro nica e aguda, uma vez que existem alteraço es que sa o letais e que, reconhecendo-os a tempo, possamos fazer um diagno stico bioquí mico definitivo e estabelecer um tratamento especí fico e curativo.
