摘要
Five elderly persons with senile dementia accidentally ingested Hoesmin, a 10% aqueous solution of benzalkonium chloride (BAC). The condition of one patient, an 84-year-old woman whose lips and oral cavity became erythematous, gradually deteriorated. Although gastric lavage was performed, the patient died 3 h after ingestion of Hoesmin. Autopsy revealed corrosive changes of the mucosal surfaces of the tongue, pharynx, larynx, esophagus and stomach which may have come in contact with BAC. In addition, BAC was detected in the serum.
