Abstrakt: A 37 year old male presented after the ingestion of paraquat ('Gramoxone', 20% w/v). Plasma paraquat concentrations indicated that he had a greater than 50% probability of death. The patient survived following a period of acute oliguric renal failure and with only mild pulmonary toxicity. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
