Activated charcoal usually provides effective and safe treatment for drug overdose. We describe a patient who developed bronchiolitis obliterans and respiratory failure following aspiration of activated charcoal. This patient had a markedly reduced vital capacity with roentgenographic evidence of airtrapping. Chest roentgenograms did not demonstrate the large amount of charcoal identified at postmortem examination.
活性炭通常为药物过量提供有效且安全的治疗。我们描述了一名患者，其在吸入活性炭后发生了闭塞性细支气管炎和呼吸衰竭。该患者肺活量显著降低，影像学有空气潴留的证据。胸部X线片未显示出尸检时发现的大量活性炭。
