[Cholinesterase activity as a prognostic test in phalloidine mushroom poisoning].
The phalloidine mushroom poisoning is an exogenic intoxication with specific action of the mushroom toxins on the liver and its functions. The dynamic follow up of serum cholinesterase activity in patients with phalloidine intoxication revealed that it was significantly decreased in the patients who died in comparison to those who survived. In the patients who survived and recovered the serum cholinesterase was moderately decreased and later increased. As a protein product synthesized in the liver the serum cholinesterase is a good marker of the protein-synthesizing function of the liver in patients with phalloidine intoxication and may be used as a prognostic test for its outcome.
