[A Case of Methemoglobinemia Caused by Toluidine Revelation with Dyspnea and Cyanosis].

Toluidine is a known cause of bladder cancer, but it is less widely recognized as a cause of methemoglobinemia because methemoglobinemia is rare. We herein report a case of methemoglobinemia caused by toluidine in a 50-year-old man. A solution of toluidine overflowed from its container during transportation and adhered to the man's clothes, but he drove to his workplace 100 km away without changing his clothes or undergoing decontamination.
