[Erosions caused by crystalline substances. Report of 3 iatrogenic cases].
Three examples demonstrate how therapeutics (potassium permanganate and silver nitrate), improperly applied, can lead to erosions the determination of which is difficult if a relatively low water solubility causes a prolonged latency between impact and perceptible consequence. This latency can be considerably extended by a slight development of subjective symptoms of such erosions. Two of the cases show that the prescription of granulated potassium permanganate requires an accurate information of the patient.
