title: [Histopathology of the skeletal musculature in acute peroral carbophos poisoning].
abstract: Clinical studies of 378 patients with acute carbophose poisoning were carried out, as well as histological studies of striated muscles (gastrocnemius, anterior tibial, intercostal and phrenic) from 7 poisoned with lethal outcome due to acute oral intake of carbophose (malation). Besides, deltoid muscles (biopsy samples) of 2 severely poisoned with carbophose patients were studied histologically. Generalized paresis and paralysis of muscles of the body and the extremities, fasciculations, muscular hypotonia were found. Histologic studies revealed extensive vascular lesions, marked necrotic and necrobiotic changes in sceletal muscles and degenerative changes in the intermuscular nerve Fibers and motor endings.
