RESUMEN
Digoxin-specific antibodies (Fab) are currently the treatment of choice for digoxin intoxication. These fragments bind to digoxin, leading to Fab-digoxin complexes, and promote the release of receptor-bound digoxin. These complexes are renally excreted. In the case of anuria, they could be dissociated and lead to renewed intoxication. In this case plasma exchanges are proposed. We report the case of an anuric patient with digoxin intoxication, treated with a Fab injection, followed by a plasma exchange 16 hours later, a second Fab injection was given followed by two plasma exchanges, 38 and 86 hours later. The disappearance of cardiac abnormalities showed the efficiency of the Fab, the drop in serum digoxin concentration and the high digoxin concentration in the exchanged plasma indicate effective elimination. The association of Fab and plasma exchanges could be proposed in the case of digoxin intoxication in the anuric patient.
