title: [Metabolism of fluorine in terminal renal failure].
abstract: Report on a 76-year-old man with untreated terminal renal insufficiency and fluoride load lasting for decades. We found the typical constellation of low fluoride values in the urine, very high serum values and considerable storage of fluoride in the skeleton. With regard to the fluoridation of drinking water fluorides are a remarkable factor in the care of patients with chronic renal diseases.
