摘要

This report describes hemochromatosis associated with chronic parenteral iron dextran administration in 2 female olive baboons (Papio anubis). These baboons were enrolled on an experimental protocol that induced and maintained anemia by periodic phlebotomy for use in studying potential treatments for sickle cell anemia. The 2 baboons both presented with clinical signs consistent with iron overload, including decreased appetite, weight loss, elevated liver enzymes, and hepatosplenomegaly. Histopathologic findings supported a morphologic diagnosis of systemic hemosiderosis, as evidenced by the overwhelming presence of iron in the reticuloendothelial system and liver after the application of Prussian blue stain. This finding, combined with the clinical presentation, lead to a final diagnosis of hemochromatosis. This case report suggests that providing anemic patients with chronic parenteral iron supplementation in the absence of iron deficiency can result in iatrogenic iron overload and subsequent systemic toxicity. Furthermore, these subjects may present with hemochromatosis and its associated clinical signs many years after cessation of iron supplementation.
