abstract="In the paper I have described a case of a student of the University of Technology who has suffered a severe Atropa belladonna intoxication. Originally the student has been sent to the Surgery Department by the ambulance service doctor who had recognized the symptoms of the post-traumatic brain damage. The diagnosis of the post-traumatic brain damage has been excluded during the following diagnostic investigation, the symptoms represented by the patient and his bad general condition, however, has still reminded the same. As the next step the patient has been transferred to the Toxicology Ward according to our suggestion of Atropa belladonna intoxication, where the diagnosis has been confirmed. The patient has regained consciousness after 10 hours of the therapy (with the use of the respirator) and has been discharged from the hospital in a good general condition after 11 days. This case of intoxication has been an example of an experiment done by a very inquiring student on himself.<p /><p>Language: pl</p>",
