  • an Accidental Death due to freon 22 monochlorodifluoromethane inhalation in a fishing vessel
    Forensic Science International, 2007
    Co-Authors: Ako Koreeda, Kosei Yonemitsu, Sohtarou Mimasaka, Yuki Ohtsu, Shigeyuki Tsunenari
    Abstract:

    A case of Accidental Freon 22 (monochlorodifluoromethane) poisoning in a fishing vessel is reported. Forensic autopsy revealed severe pulmonary edema and congestion(left lung;576 g, rightlung;740 g).GC‐MSanalysis clearly showed thatthe deceased inhaledFreon 22gas prior to his Death. Freon 22 concentration was 169 7.0 mg/ml in the heart blood. The distribution pattern of Freon 22 in tissue samples was similar to that in previously reported cases. The brain had the highest concentration of Freon 22 followed by the spleen, liver, kidney and lung, respectively. Histopathologically, Oil red O staining of theliver showed manysmall, positivered areas in the cytosol, which have been reported in othercases of Freon 22 poisoning. However, Schmorl staining revealed that most areas of Oil red O positivity were lipofuscin granules. Lipofuscin in the liver, which closely relates to aging and other cell stresses, could have a relevance to Freon 22 exposure, but further experimental studies are needed to confirm it. # 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

    Abstract:

    Abstract A case of Accidental Freon 22 (monochlorodifluoromethane) poisoning in a fishing vessel is reported. Forensic autopsy revealed severe pulmonary edema and congestion (left lung; 576 g, right lung; 740 g). GC–MS analysis clearly showed that the deceased inhaled Freon 22 gas prior to his Death. Freon 22 concentration was 169 ± 7.0 μg/ml in the heart blood. The distribution pattern of Freon 22 in tissue samples was similar to that in previously reported cases. The brain had the highest concentration of Freon 22 followed by the spleen, liver, kidney and lung, respectively. Histopathologically, Oil red O staining of the liver showed many small, positive red areas in the cytosol, which have been reported in other cases of Freon 22 poisoning. However, Schmorl staining revealed that most areas of Oil red O positivity were lipofuscin granules. Lipofuscin in the liver, which closely relates to aging and other cell stresses, could have a relevance to Freon 22 exposure, but further experimental studies are needed to confirm it.

  • Accidental Death from acute selenium poisoning
    The Medical Journal of Australia, 2006
    Co-Authors: Peter S Lavercombe, Jasmine Dillon, Riesa Ginsberg
    Abstract:

    We report a fatal case of acute selenium poisoning in a 75-year-old man. After reading on the Internet about a possible role of selenium in prostate cancer, the patient ingested 10 g of sodium selenite. Despite intensive care treatment, he suffered a cardiac arrest and died 6 hours after ingestion. This case illustrates the risks of failing to critically evaluate Internet information and exposes the myth that natural therapies are inherently safe. Language: en
