[Amanita poisoning during pregnancy].
A pregnant woman at the 28th gestational week and three other members of the family had mushrooms for dinner. One of these mushrooms was an Amanita mushroom. The morning after, three of them suffered from nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. The pregnant woman was admitted to hospital, and therapy with Penicillin and Silibinin was started immediately. Hepatic and renal blood parameters were observed repeatedly for early detecting of organ failure. Fetal lung maturation was forced by administration of betamethasone. After five days at the intensive care unit mother and unborn child were dismissed at normal physical condition.
