Rapid development of severe copper deficiency in a patient with Crohn's Disease receiving parenteral nutrition
|
ABSTRACT. A 32-year-old man with active Crohn's disease and recurrent small bowel strictures underwent abdominal surgery and was subsequently given total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Severe cholestasis developed and copper was removed from the TPN. Although serum ceruloplasmin levels were within normal limits, 8 weeks after copper removal, he developed pancytopenia. Serum copper levels were severely depressed. Bone marrow biopsy was consistent with copper deficiency; cytoplasmic vacuolization of both myeloid and erythroid precursors, megaloblastic erthropoiesis, and marked hypocellularity were ...
