STOMACH AFTER ACUTE POISONING WITH CORROSIVE SUBLIMATE (VON HOFMANN).

A hospital nurse poisoned herself with a concentrated solution of corrosive sublimate, and died from collapse in four hours after persistent vomiting. A grayish-white eschar was diffused over the mucous membrane of the lips, mouth, and pharynx. At the necropsy the same appearance was found in the esophagus and stomach. The stomach was firm and contracted, looking as if cooked. The entire mucous membrane and part of the submucosa were colored a uniform pale violet. The walls were thickened, and fell into coarse folds. The changes were those of “coagulation necrosis." The peculiar color is the result of the mouse-gray tint of the coagulated blood in the vessels, blending with the white escharotic tissue of the epithelium.
