Zinc is a common supplement and is widely available as a standard component of many over-the-counter products. A number of reports have identified an association between excessive zinc intake and severe cytopenia. We report a case of zinc-induced copper deficiency in a young adult to illustrate this under-recognized cause of anemia and neutropenia.
锌是一种常见的补充剂,作为许多非处方产品的标准成分广泛可得。许多报告已确定过量摄入锌与严重血细胞减少之间存在关联。我们报告一例年轻成人锌诱导铜缺乏的病例,以说明这种未得到充分认识的贫血和中性粒细胞减少的病因。
