野生莴苣(Lactuca virosa)在食用时会引起毒性作用。野生莴苣生长在伊朗北部,一些当地人食用它时没有意识到它的副作用。我们描述了8例患者的表现,野生莴苣毒性,承认附属于戈莱斯坦医科大学的综合医院。所有患者均痊愈(尽管其中一名患者在重症监护室治疗48小时),未报告慢性并发症。临床怀疑野生莴苣摄入引起的毒性和准确的病史构成了诊断的基础。保守治疗、生命体征监测、控制患者的摄入量和排出量、减少患者的躁动为治疗提供了依据。
Wild lettuce (Lactuca virosa) can cause toxic effects when eaten. Wild lettuce grows in the north of Iran and some natives consume it unaware of its adverse side effects. We describe eight patients with manifestations of wild lettuce toxicity, admitted to a general hospital affiliated to the Golestan University of Medical Sciences. All the patients recovered (although one had to spend 48 h in the intensive care unit) and no chronic complications were reported. A clinical suspicion of toxicity caused by wild lettuce intake and an accurate history formed the basis of the diagnosis. Conservative treatment, vital sign monitoring, control of patient intake and output, and reducing patient agitation provided the basis for treatment.
