title: [Sublimate intoxication].
abstract: Acute oral intoxication with inorganic mercury compounds (in particular mercury bichloride sublimate) is characterized in particular by corrosion of the mucous membranes of the digestive tract associated with necrotizing sublimate nephrosis, with microscopically selective necrosis of the proximal tubule cells. Toxicological analysis of the affected organs (stomach, oesophagus) confirms the diagnosis.
