A patient's case report documents the development of anosmia and rhinitis caused by occupational exposure to organic solvents, including tetrahydrofuran, cyclohexanone, acetone and other ketones. Physicians should inquire about possible mucosal irritation or prenarcotic symptoms during exposure. If an occupational disease is assumed, notification must be sent to the Institution for Statutory Accident Insurance and Prevention (Berufsgenossenschaft). Some diseases, for example olfactory disorders due to chemical mixtures, are not included in the German list of occupational diseases. In this case, a special law (Sozialgesetzbuch VII) regulates compensation.
一份患者病例报告记录了因职业接触有机溶剂（包括四氢呋喃、环己酮、丙酮及其他酮类）而导致的嗅觉丧失和鼻炎。医生应询问接触期间是否可能出现粘膜刺激或麻醉前症状。如果怀疑是职业病，必须向法定事故保险和预防机构（职业合作社）报告。某些疾病，例如由化学混合物引起的嗅觉障碍，未被列入德国职业病名录。在这种情况下，一项特殊法律（《社会法典》第七编）对赔偿事宜作出规定。
