Abstrakt: | With over 90% of deaths following mushroom ingestion, poisoning with Amatoxin is one of the most dangerous food intoxications. Despite numerous case reports, treatment recommendations are based on a moderate level of evidence due to a lack of randomized controlled trials.We present the case of a 32-year-old patient who presented with acute liver failure after Amanita phalloides (green death cap mushroom) ingestion and whose therapeutic success was significantly influenced by the administration of activated charcoal, silibinin, and N-acetylcysteine as well as the determined research of an external mycologist.In various retrospective studies, a relevant reduction of mortality could be shown by the mentioned medicinal measures. Despite the high estimated amount of ingestion, we could confirm the effectiveness of this combination therapy in this case.Here, in addition to the drug therapy, attention should also be paid to the extraordinary cooperation of a mycologist, who was able to confirm the suspected diagnosis by his investigative approach and thus contributed to the success of the therapy. Immediate contact with the competent poison centre and the involvement of an expert is therefore recommended in unclear situations.
