Systemic fluoride poisoning and death from inhalational exposure to sulfuryl fluoride [PDF]

Clinical Toxicology, 2008
We report a poisoning death from inhalational exposure to the gas fumigants chloropicrin and sulfuryl fluoride. The patient displayed both local irritant effects of chloropicrin and systemic effects of sulfuryl fluoride. The clinical course, marked by initial hypocalcemia, delayed onset of ventricular dysrhythmias, and death, is consistent with ...
