Abstract
The authors present a late sequel of poisoning with dichlorodiethyl sulphide, also known as mustard gas or Ypérite, in a patient of 22 years of age--a late sequel not described in the literature to date. After the poisoning, a severe pulmonary fibrosis with pulmonary artery hypertension developed. A mediastinal emphysema that had so far been observed only during the acute intoxication phase, was evident even two years after the intoxication. Perivascular collections of air in the left lung communicating via the left hilus with the mediastinal air point to the existence of bronchus or lung parenchyma fistulas.
