TY - JOUR PY - 1980// TI - Mushroom poisoning: clinical contribution JO - Minerva anestesiologica A1 - Gismondi, A. A1 - Colonna, S. S. A1 - Caione, R. SP - 1283 EP - 1294 VL - 46 IS - 12 N2 - Emphasis is placed on the need for a careful appraisal of the history in the diagnostic and prognostic approach to mushroom poisoning. The main syndromes are described and an account is given of the modern treatment of the dramatic pictures caused by phalloides poisoning. A personal case series formed of 118 patients treated between Jan. 1969 and Dec. 1977 is presented. The importance of certain methods, especially dialysis, in the management of phalloides cases is discussed. Stress if laid on the need to hospitalise all persons displaying symptoms referable to the ingestion of mushrooms in suitable equipped centres as soon as possible.
