[Blindness and neurological sequelae following carbon monoxide poisoning: effective treatment with hyperbaric oxygen].

We present two patients who developed visual deterioration due to carbon monoxide poisoning. They were treated with hyperbaric oxygen and recovered not only their vision but also they improved neurological signs and symptoms. We believe that implementation of hyperbaric oxygen, even in a late period of time will be effective in reversing neurological sequelae.

[An unintended diagnosis: Serotonergic toxicity secondary to drug interactions. Case reports].

Serotonin toxicity is a potentially life-threatening condition associated with increased serotonergic activity in the central nervous system. It is seen with therapeutic medication use, intentional self-poisoning and inadvertent interactions (SSRI-isoniazid). Although this pathology is increasingly common, it is not well recognized by physicians and manifestations may be wrongly attributed to another cause.
