A 40-years-old man had taken organophosphate (dimethoate) before one day and he was treated with gastric irrigation only in the private hospital for one day. But he was found dead after several hours from discharge. Bereaved families suspected medical mistakes and claimed autopsy. After autopsy, we concluded that he was died by respiratory failure on account of dimethoate intoxication. Generally symptoms of organophosphate poisoning appear immediately, but this case shows unusual course of intoxication. Here in, we reported a delayed death due to organophosphate intoxication with literature review.
Key words : organophosphate, intoxication, dimethoate
