SP - S33 EP - S36 VL - 31 IS - Suppl 1 N2 - Intermediate syndrome with delayed distal polyneuropathy is an uncommon clinical condition due to organophosphates following accidental or suicidal exposure. Features of intermediate syndrome develop 24 to 96 h and delayed distal polyneuropathy develops 7-12 days postingestion. We describe a case of intermediated syndrome with delayed polyneuropathy that occurred in a 54 year-old, female patient after exposed to chloropyrifos. Patients who recover from initial acute cholinergic crisis should be closely monitored for the development of delayed distal polyneuropathy.
