Treatment of Ethylene Glycol Poisoning with Oral Ethyl Alcohol

Case Reports in Medicine, 2019
Ethylene glycol poisoning is not uncommon in India. The ill effects are primarily caused by its toxic metabolites: glycolic acid and oxalic acid. A 70-year-old female presented to our hospital with ataxia after ingestion of ethylene glycol.
