摘要
This is the first Cuban report of a suicide carried out by lethal intake of aluminum phosphide, a pesticide used to control rodents and insects. We review the main toxic effects, placing emphasis on hypoglycemia, which is seldom mentioned, and electrocardiographic abnormalities suggestive of subendocardial infarction.
