[Chronic lead poisoning].

Epidemiologic studies have shown a steady decrease in the blood lead concentrations in populations from developed countries. This decrease is due to the promulgation of legislative measures designed to reduce sources of environmental lead exposure. As a result, during the last several years, lead poisoning has been reported with a minor frequency. We describe here three patients with chronic lead poisoning owing to chronic ingestion of water contaminated by lead pipes.
