To determine the incidence of renal functional abnormalities after lead poisoning, we evaluated the parameters of renal tubular function in 134 children and young adults, 8-13 years after chelation therapy for severe lead poisoning. There was no evidence of hypertension or reduced kidney function as assessed by serum creatinine (Cr) concentrations. Urinary alpha-amino nitrogen (U-aan) concentrations were significantly increased compared with 19 healthy age-matched controls. Ninety-four children (70%) had aminoaciduria (U-aan/Cr > 0.23). Urinary glucose excretion was also significantly higher than that of 2 historical controls. Thirty-two children (24%) had glycosuria (> 125 mg/24 h). Fractional excretion of phosphate was normal in all children. We conclude that a partial Fanconi syndrome can persist up to 13 years after childhood lead poisoning.
