Acute respiratory syndrome following accidental inhalation of mercury vapor

Clinical Case Reports
Jorge CortesRienzi Díaz-Navarro

Abstract

Although the manufacture of glass mercury thermometers is now prohibited, they are still present in daily life and represent a source of accidental mercury intoxication. Physicians should be able to recognize the clinical manifestations of mercury poisoning caused by accidental exposure and know the appropriate treatment for this toxicological emergency.
