abstract="Endrin is a cycladine organic chloride insecticide responsible for fatal poisoning due to food contamination, suicide or occupational cause. The case of an 18 months old infant who ingested Endrin that was being used at home by his parents as raticide is reported. There appeared sudden convulsive crises, coma and death within 24 hours. The pathological findings were unspecific. Experimental studies and clinical observations of other authors that are coincidental with the symptoms shown by this child are discussed. The possible etiopathogenesis of this poisoining, together with the necessity to control this type of toxics, for which there is no antidotal treatment, are also discussed.<p /><p>Language: es</p>",
