Methanol intoxication: differential diagnosis from anion gap-increased acidosis.
We report a case of methanol intoxication, which was not distinguished from ethylene glycol intoxication during treatment. A 65-year-old man was transferred to our emergency department because of drowsiness and remarkable metabolic acidosis. He was intubated because his consciousness disturbance worsened. The diagnosis was suspected as methanol or ethylene glycol intoxication in addition to eth...

Accidental or intentional ingestion of substances containing methanol and ethylene glycol can result in death, and some survivors are left with blindness, renal dysfunction, and chronic brain injury. However, even in large ingestions, a favorable outcome is possible if the patient arrives at the hospital early enough and the poisoning is identified and appropriately treated in a timely manner. ...

nerve was performed, with the active surface recording electrode over the midportion of the abductor digiti minimi muscle. The CMAP at rest was compared with the highest amplitude CMAP on stimulation. On the third hospital day supramaximal stimulation at 3 Hertz gave an increment of 18%, and stimulation at 50 Hertz gave an abnormal incremental response of 81% (normal mean increment = 2-4%; uppe...
متن کاملMR findings in methanol intoxication.
We report the MR and CT findings with pathologic correlation in a case of severe methanol intoxication. There was bilateral hemorrhagic necrosis of the putamen and caudate nuclei and, in addition, extensive subcortical necrosis and symmetric bilateral necrosis of the pontine tegmentum and optic nerves, which may indicate poor prognosis.
