title: [State of the nervous system following acute chlorophos poisoning].
abstract: The authors describe the clinical traits of myeloradiculopolyneuritis (2 cases) and encephalopolyneuritis (1 case) developing 2--3 weeks following acute poisoning by chlorofos. Along with a distinct toxic polyneuritic syndrome there were also signs of pathology in the spinal cord and brain, as well as in the internal organs in the forms of toxic hepatitis and nephritis. The report contains data indicating a protracted development of the pathology, its direct dependence upon the depth of intoxication and disordered consciousness in the acute period. The authors express the opinion that in the described pathology there may be autoallergic mechanisms in the formation of myeloradiculopolyneuritis and encephalopolyneuritis following poisoning by chlorofos.
