Structural Findings in the Brain MRI of Patients with Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Background: Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning may lead to hypoxic/anoxic injury and eventually ischemic encephalopathy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has a well-recognized role in assessment of the severity of brain damage caused by CO poisoning. In this study, we aimed to present and analyze the structural abnormalities in the brain MRI and especially in diffusion weighted MRI (DWI) images in ...

Acute Compartment Syndrome Which Causes Rhabdomyolysis by Carbon Monoxide Poisoning and Sciatic Nerve Injury Associated with It: A Case Report

Rhabdomyolysis is most frequently caused by soft tissue injury with trauma to the extremities. Non-traumatic rhabdomyolysis may be caused by alcohol or drug abuse, infection, collagen disease, or intensive exercise, but incidence is low. In particular, rhabdomyolysis resulting from carbon monoxide poisoning is especially rare. If caught before death, carbon monoxide poisoning has been shown to ...

A Case of Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Resulting in an ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a well-known chemical asphyxiant, which causes tissue hypoxia with prominent neurological and cardiovascular injury. After exposure to CO, several cardiac manifestations have been reported, including arrhythmias, acute myocardial infarction, and pulmonary edema. However, an ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) due to CO poisoning is a very rare presentation, and th...

Myocardial fibrosis from severe carbon monoxide poisoning detected by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a leading cause of toxicological morbidity and mortality. We recently reported 37% of patients with moderate to severe CO poisoning suffered myocardial injury.1 In follow-up, 24% of patients died at a median of 7.6 years, a mortality rate 3 times higher than expected compared with ageand sex-specific US mortality rates. Myocardial injury was the major predictor...

Correlation of computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and clinical outcome in acute carbon monoxide poisoning.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas for humans and is still a silent killer in both developed and developing countries. The aim of this case series was to evaluate early radiological images as a predictor of subsequent neuropsychological sequelae, following carbon monoxide poisoning. CASE 1 After carbon monoxide exposure, early computed tomography scans and magnetic reson...
