Chromic Acid Poisoning Treated with Acute Hemodialysis

Abstract
Poisoning with Cr compounds is rare, but often serious. The symptoms are quite characteristic, the most dramatic of these being circulatory collapse, hepatic and renal failure. A case is reported where an 18 yr old woman ingested 5 g of chromic acid. She was treated with acute hemodialysis and forced diuresis and survived with surprisingly few symptoms of poisoning.
