title: A jaundiced farmer.
abstract: A previously well farmer became deeply jaundiced after dipping sheep with organophosphate sheep dips. He had failed to wear adequate protective clothing and presumably absorbed toxic compounds through his skin. There is currently major interest in these compounds because of their protean clinical manifestations.
