Between 1962 and 1973, six children were admitted to the Massachusetts General Hospital because of accidental iron poisoning. Intoxication was life-threatening in two children whose serum iron concentrations exceeded their iron binding capacities. One of these patients died despite intensive supportive care and desferoxamine therapy. Although iron poisoning appears to be relatively uncommon, it can produce life-threatening and fatal intoxication in children.
1962年至1973年间，有6名儿童因意外铁中毒被收治入马萨诸塞州综合医院。两名儿童的中毒情况危及生命，其血清铁浓度超过了铁结合能力。其中一名患者尽管接受了强化支持治疗和去铁胺治疗仍不幸死亡。尽管铁中毒似乎相对不常见，但它可导致儿童出现危及生命和致命的中毒情况。
