| Popis: | Currently, the proportion of workers exposed to manganese compounds is quite high, but due to increased safety measures and changes in working conditions, the number of new cases of chronic occupational manganese intoxication has decreased significantly. an attempt has been madeAn attempt has been made to highlight the difficulties of differential diagnosis of occupational chronic manganese intoxication and other neurological diseases on the example of clinical cases of examination of persons with extrapyramidal system lesions in the form of early development of Parkinson’s disease. The assessment of complaints, medical history, neurological status, laboratory tests, and instrumental studies to find the probable cause of Parkinsonism was carried out. The interest of the observations lies in the difficulty of interpreting the data obtained and the importance of studying the professional route of patients. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, electromyography of the extremities, electroencephalography, echoencephalography, the study of the concentration of metabolites characteristic of Niemann-Pik disease, copper indicators in the blood help in making a correct diagnosis.When examining a contingent of people working in contact with manganese compounds, if they suspect chronic occupational manganese intoxication, it is important consider other diseases that lead to the development of Parkinson’s disease.The authors declare no conflict of interests. |
