Its poisoning causes varying degrees of conduction defects in cardiac tissue. We report a 17-year-old young girl who presented with extensive T wave inversions on ECG which prevailed for four months duration following acute yellow oleander poisoning. © 2018, College of Anaesthesiologists of Sri Lanka.
