[Acute ethylene glycol poisoning in the Tarnów region in the years 1982-1993].
The paper presents 15 causes of severe ethylene glycol poisoning in Tarnów region in the years 1982-1993. In the treatment haemodialyses as well as acidosis balancing and aethanol administration as an antidotum were preferred. Acute renal failure was observed in 73% of poisoned patients and mortality rate was 53%.
