Chlorosilane is a hazardous chemical compound which is used as a raw material in the production of silicone. Despite strict restrictions, accidental spillage of chlorosilane is often reported. However, human exposure was rarely reported in the past decades and the effect on humans is barely known. We report cases of human exposure to an accidental trichlorosilane spill. Three middle aged male industrial workers visited our emergency department after exposure to trichlorosilane. They presented with shortness of breath and burns on multiple sites. Chest radiograph and laboratory studies were performed. None of the reports showed serious results and were discharged after conservative management.
氯硅烷是一种危险的化合物，用作生产有机硅的原材料。尽管有严格限制，但仍经常有氯硅烷意外泄漏的报告。然而，在过去几十年中，很少有关于人体接触氯硅烷的报告，其对人体的影响也几乎不为人知。我们报告了人体接触三氯硅烷意外泄漏的病例。三名中年男性产业工人在接触三氯硅烷后前往我们的急诊科就诊。他们出现了呼吸急促和多处烧伤。进行了胸部X光检查和实验室检查。所有报告均未显示严重结果，经保守治疗后出院。
