Abstract
Acute poisoning with sodium nitrate appears to be extremely rare. In the latest manuals (Gelman, Bergman, etc.), sodium nitrate is not mentioned among the important representatives of the group of nitro compounds known for their toxicity to the blood and central nervous system. Only Richard Lenzmann, in his “Pathology and Therapy of Painful Conditions Suddenly Threatening Life” (1912), speaking about poisons that cause the formation of methemoglobin in the blood, mentions sodium nitrate, without giving a complete description of the clinical picture of poisoning with this poison. Therefore, it is not without interest There will be a description of the acute poisoning we observed with sodium nitrate.
