[Necrosis of the terminal ileum after drug poisoning. Case report].

In an attempt to commit suicide, a 32-year-old women swallowed a vast amount of psychiatric drugs, i.e. tranquilizers, amphetamines, hynotic and antidepressant agents. By intensive care, using high doses of catecholamines and appropriate antidota, satisfactory circulation and oxygenation could be maintained. 3 days after admission a peritonitis became apparent. A 50 cm long section of the distal ileum was found to be completely necrotic and had to be resected. However, circulation of the correspondent mesenterium was not disturbed at all. A drug-induced non-occlusive intestinal ischemia was postulated to be the pathophysiological mechanism of intestinal necrosis. Non-occlusive intestinal ischemia is rare; it has been reported in young adults intoxicated by cocaine or phenobarbital, in children with high overdosage of iron compounds, in elderly individuals suffering from low-output congestive heart disease and in patients treated with digitalis drugs, with or with or without overdosage.

[Acute poisoning with selected hepatotoxic agents: biochemistry of toxic effect, clinical symptoms and treatment].

The paper discusses etiopathogenesis, clinical symptoms and treatment in acute poisoning with hepatotoxic agents. The liver is a critical organ in acute poisoning with Amanita phalloides, carbon tetrachloride, iron compounds and isonicotinic acid hydrazide. Based on literature reports and own experience the authors present the current outlook on the specific treatment of acute poisoning with these xenobiotics. Special consideration was given to biochemical etiopathogenesis of hepatoxicity: oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation and impaired homeostasis of calcium ions and glutathione. Basic principles were also discussed of conservative treatment in hepatic encephalopathy due to toxic liver necrosis.
