A fatal case due to severe methemoglobinemia is presented. A male in his forties was found unconscious in his house and, despite intensive care, death was confirmed approximately 11 hours later. Toxicological analysis using ion chromatography revealed the presence of chlorate in the stomach contents. However, chlorate was not detected in the blood, and no other drugs or ethanol were detected in the blood either. We concluded that the cause of death was presumably due to chlorate poisoning, based on the results of the autopsy and the toxicological examination.
本文报告了一例因严重高铁血红蛋白血症致死的病例。一名四十多岁的男性被发现在家中昏迷，尽管进行了重症监护，但约11小时后仍被确认死亡。使用离子色谱法进行的毒理学分析显示，胃内容物中存在氯酸盐。然而，血液中未检测到氯酸盐，血液中也未检测到其他药物或乙醇。根据尸检和毒理学检查结果，我们得出结论，死因可能是氯酸盐中毒。
