Abstract
A clinical analysis was made of fourteen cases of methyl bromide poisoning. Thirteen cases occurred in relation to fumigation of foodstuff or wood, the remaining one to preparation of a chemical. Transient hypertension was observed in five cases, contracted visual field in eight, and unilateral nerve signs in three. Five cases resumed normal gait six to eight months after the onset. Eight cases were included in the chronic type, four in the transient type and two in the severe type.
