Methanol intoxication can be occurred as accidental or suicidal ingestion or intentional ingestion through abuse. Formic acid is the primary toxic metabolite which causes high anion gap metabolic acidosis and end-organ damage in the human body. Here we presented a 46-year-old man who loss of consciousness on the 23rd day of hospitalization and his cranial computed tomography revealed bilateral subcortical hemorrhages. This case indicates us an example of late appearance of hemorrhagic transformation in methanol intoxication.
