Severe plant poisoning is relatively uncommon in adults. We report two adults who ingested hemlock water dropwort roots, having mistaken them for wild parsnip. One developed prolonged convulsions, severe metabolic acidosis and respiratory distress requiring mechanical ventilation. The toxin--oenanthotoxin--was detected in the gastric aspirate and measured by high performance liquid chromatography.
严重的植物中毒在成年人中相对不常见。我们报告了两名成年人，他们误将毒芹根当作野生欧洲防风草食用。其中一人出现了长时间的惊厥、严重的代谢性酸中毒和呼吸窘迫，需要机械通气。在胃吸出物中检测到了毒素——水芹毒素，并通过高效液相色谱法进行了测量。
