The authors report a case of nutritional zinc deficiency in a young (18-year-old) Turkish woman, who previously delivered 2 anencephalic stillborn infants. The patient was supplemented with 22.5 mg oral zinc sulfate (100 mg ZnSO4.7H2O) for 5 months after her second delivery prior to her third pregnancy. Her blood (plasma and red blood cell) and hair zinc levels returned to normal following zinc supplementation. Good response to Zn supplementation was another criterion of Zn deficiency in this particular case. After an uneventful gestational period, she delivered an apparently normal full-term male child who has grown normally during the first 12 months.
作者报告了一例年轻（18岁）土耳其女性的营养性锌缺乏病例，该女性此前曾产下2例无脑儿死产婴儿。在第二次分娩后至第三次怀孕前，该患者口服22.5毫克硫酸锌（100毫克ZnSO4·7H2O），持续补充了5个月。补充锌后，她的血液（血浆和红细胞）和头发锌水平恢复正常。对锌补充剂的良好反应是该特定病例中锌缺乏的另一个标准。经过一段平稳的妊娠期后，她产下了一名明显正常的足月男婴，该男婴在出生后的前12个月里生长正常。
