Area of Science:

  • Toxicology
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Rodenticide poisoning is a significant public health concern, particularly in developing nations.
  • Obtaining a reliable patient history can be challenging due to patient factors or the substance's effects.

Observation:

  • A case involved a 34-year-old male with intentional ingestion of zinc phosphide rodenticide.
  • Radiopaque material was visualized in the stomach via abdominal radiography.

Findings:

  • Abdominal radiography successfully identified the presence of ingested radiopaque material consistent with metal phosphide rodenticide.

Implications:

  • Abdominal radiography serves as a valuable diagnostic aid for metal phosphide ingestion when patient history is unavailable.
  • This imaging technique can expedite diagnosis and management in emergency settings for rodenticide poisoning.
