Article Synopsis
- A 62-year-old man died from colchicine poisoning after accidentally ingesting Colchicum autumnale, which he mistook for wild garlic in a salad.
- He experienced gastroenteritis symptoms shortly after ingestion and despite medical interventions like gastric lavage and ventilation, he suffered multi-organ failure and died five days later.
- Post-mortem analysis confirmed colchicine poisoning with severe liver and kidney damage, highlighting the dangers of misidentifying toxic plants, especially since this is one of the few reported fatal cases in Croatia.
