title: [Plasmapheresis and mushroom poisoning:report of a case of Amanita phalloides poisoning].
abstract: A case of amanita phalloides which presented a typical picture of phalloides intossication has been treated at our Centre. The patient was submitted to four treatments of plasmaexchange (Plasmafiltration), exchanging from 70 to 80% of the plasmatic volume and using substitutive liquids 4% albumine and frozen plasma, using as filter Plasmaflo Asahi OP-O5 (1) and Plasmapheresis equipment SIFRA mod. 914. Already after the first treatment there was an improvement of the general condition with a stabilization of the renal and hepatic parameters at the end of the cycle.
