title: [Acute renal failure after paracetamol (Acetaminophen) poisoning--report of two cases].
abstract: Two cases of paracetamol (acetaminophen) poisoning resulting in acute oliguric renal failure requiring dialysis in one case are described. There were signs of hepatotoxicity with no marked hepatic failure in either of cases. Neither was treated with N-acetylocystein due to late referral to a dialysis center. It is concluded that acute renal failure during paracetamol poisoning may not necessarily be followed by an evident hepatic failure.
