TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Psilocybin mushroom (Psilocybe semilanceata) intoxication with myocardial infarction JO - Journal of toxicology - clinical toxicology A1 - Borowiak, Krzysztof S. A1 - Ciechanowski, K. A1 - Waloszczyk, P. SP - 47 EP - 49 VL - 36 IS - 1-2 N2 - CASE REPORT: Intentional intoxication with natural hallucinogenic substances such as hallucinogenic mushrooms continues to be a major problem in the US and Europe, particularly in the harbor complex of northwest Poland (Pomerania). A case is described of Psilocybe intoxication in an 18-year-old man resulting in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, arrhythmia, and myocardial infarction. The indole concentrations of hallucinogenic mushrooms may predict the risk for adverse central nervous system and cardiac toxicity.
