The global trend of increasing mushroom consumption, combined with traditional practices in Romania and other Eastern European countries of collecting and consuming "wild mushrooms", may contribute to the rising incidence of emergency presentations due to inedible mushroom poisoning. This study aims to identify the clinical features of mushroom poisoning by retrospectively analyzing 47 cases presented to the Emergency Department of the Bucharest Emergency Hospital between 2023 and 2024. The methodology consists of a retrospective cohort study including all patients presented to the Emergency Department of the Bucharest Emergency Hospital with symptoms following mushroom ingestion between 2023 and 2024 totaling 47 cases. Conclusions: In this cohort, most cases of wild/forest mushroom poisoning (76.59%) were diagnosed during autumn, particularly in September and October. The distribution of cases was uniform with respect to both gender and urban versus rural residence. A significant proportion of patients (74.46%) required hospitalization for surveillance and/or specific treatment. The predominant clinical presentation consisted of gastrointestinal symptoms, observed in 97.87% of cases.
全球蘑菇消费增加的趋势，再加上罗马尼亚和其他东欧国家采集和食用“野生蘑菇”的传统做法，可能导致因误食毒蘑菇而急诊就诊的发病率上升。本研究旨在通过回顾性分析2023年至2024年期间在布加勒斯特急救医院急诊科就诊的47例病例，确定蘑菇中毒的临床特征。该方法包括一项回顾性队列研究，纳入了2023年至2024年期间因食用蘑菇后出现症状而到布加勒斯特急救医院急诊科就诊的所有患者，共计47例。结论：在该队列中，大多数野生/森林蘑菇中毒病例（76.59%）在秋季被诊断出来，尤其是在9月和10月。病例在性别和城乡居住方面的分布是均匀的。相当一部分患者（74.46%）需要住院进行监测和/或接受特定治疗。主要的临床表现为胃肠道症状，97.87%的病例出现该症状。
