Core Tip |
Chelation forms the most important part of management of certain liver diseases in children. In Wilson's disease and secondary hemochromatosis related to transfusion, chelation is well established treatment modality with proven efficacy. In other diseases like copper associated childhood cirrhosis and neonatal hemochromatosis the role of chelation is doubtful. In Herediatary hemochromatosis, chelation is recommended as alternative therapy. The selection of chelating agents for treatment depends on the efficacy, feasibility and risk of adverse effects known from literature. The review discusses the concepts of chelation and reviews the literature to assess the role of chelation in treatment of various pediatric liver diseases. |
