Zihe Dong, W W Liu, Z M Fan, Hua Shao

Abstract

Arsenic trioxide poisoning can cause damage to the nervous system, heart, liver, kidney and other organs, with a lethal dose of 0.8-2.0 mg/kg. Acute poisoning is now rare. This article analyzes the clinical characteristics of 10 patients with acute poisoning caused by the absorption of arsenic trioxide through the respiratory tract, digestive tract, and skin, in order to improve clinicians' understanding of acute arsenic trioxide poisoning.
