摘要
A 65-year-old man suffering from esophageal cancer presented with postoperative alcohol withdrawal syndrome. Diazepam was used intravenously, but his condition did not improve. With inhalation of alcohol vapor driven by oxygen, the abnormal symptoms subsided and vital signs began to return to normal rapidly. This method is also beneficial for expectoration and redressing hypoxemia.
