[Fanconi syndrome following an accident at work]

Fanconi Syndrome is characterized by a transport defect in the proximal tubules, complete or partial, leading to reabsorption and secretion defect of amino acids, glucose, bicarbonates and other organic compounds. Associated with numerous disease states ranging from rare inherited disorders of metabolism to exposure to exogenous toxins. We report a case of acute renal failure and tubulopathy after burns caused by toxic metals agents.
