摘要：
Background: Acute aluminum phosphide (AIP) poisoning is one of the most common cause of acute pesticide poisoning in Iran. Spontaneous ignition is a rare finding in AIP poisoning. Objective: To present two cases of fatal ALP poisoning that involved spontaneous ignition. Case Report: Two patients presented with suicidal ingestion of AIP tablets. In the Emergency Department (ED), they received gastric lavage. During insertion of a nasogastric tube, both patients experienced spontaneous ignition, and flames were witnessed by the medical personnel. Unfortunately, both patients died due to systemic effects of ALP poisoning. Conclusion: Patients who present with acute aluminum phosphide poisoning may experience spontaneous ignition in the ED.
