METHODS: The clinical data of 8 patients with chronic occupational mercury intoxication were analysed and evaluated. RESULTS: All the observed clinical signs of chronic mercury intoxication correspond with the items of the diagnostic criteria of occupational mercury poisoning. The increasing beta2-MG was one of the clinical manifestations of renal injury induced by chronic mercury intoxication. The renal injury obviously was dose-dependent and reversible. CONCLUSIONS: The national diagnostic criteria of occupational mercury poisoning is practically valuable. The renal injury induced by chronic mercury intoxication should not be neglected.
