Ingestion of gasoline can cause severe pulmonary and gastrointestinal complications. Computed tomography may reveal characteristic findings.
A 61-year-old man had gastrointestinal symptoms, and subsequently developed respiratory distress and altered mental status after ingesting approximately 150 mL of gasoline.
Abdominal computed tomography revealed a characteristic three-layered appearance of intestinal contents, likely representing intestinal fluid, ingested gasoline, and gas. Chest computed tomography showed bilateral pulmonary infiltrates consistent with pneumonitis.
Recognition of the characteristic three-layered appearance of the intestinal contents on abdominal computed tomography might aid in the diagnosis of gasoline ingestion.
吞食汽油可导致严重的肺和胃肠道并发症。计算机断层扫描（CT）可能会呈现出特征性的表现。
一名 61 岁男性因吞食了约 150 毫升的汽油而出现胃肠道症状，随后出现呼吸窘迫和意识改变。
腹部 CT 显示肠内容物呈特征性的三层结构，可能分别代表肠液、吞食的汽油和气体。胸部 CT 显示双侧肺部浸润影，符合肺炎表现。
认识到腹部 CT 上肠内容物的特征性三层结构可能有助于诊断吞食汽油。
