abstract="OBJECTIVES: A rare case of a suicidal use of gases from the car exhaust system of the car petrol engine in an open space is presented. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION: In order to verify suicidal intent of poisoning, an experimental reconstruction of the crime scene was performed; this demonstrated that appropriately long exposure to carbon monoxide with unfavorable weather conditions can cause acute carbon monoxide poisoning in an open space. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: This case was studied to observe the pattern of fatal carbon monoxide poisoning in an open space; this might be helpful for forensic medicine, and emergency medicine, occupational medicine.<br><br>The Author(s).
