Abstract

An unusual type of food poisoning, mad honey intoxication, can be observed in the Black Sea region of  Turkey and various  other  parts of the world.  It can occur after ingestion of grayanotoxin-contaminated honey produced from the nectar of Rhododendron ponticum and other plant species, chiefly of the Ericaceae and Sapindaceae families. Mad honey  intoxication can result in severe cardiac complications, such as complete atrioventricular block. The diagnosis is generally reached on the basis of the patient's history of honey intake.  In this report, we describe the case of a patient who had mad honey related complete atrioventricular block and accelerate nodal rhythm.

Abstract

Nadir bir gıda zehirlenmesi olan deli bal zehirlenmesi Karadeniz bölgesi ve dünyanın diğer bölgelerinde görülebilmektedir.  Ericaceae ve Sapindaceae ailesinin  Rhododendron ponticum bitki türlerinden üretilmiş nektarın grayanotoxin ile kontamine olmuş balın tüketilmesiyle ortaya çıkar. Deli bal zehirlenmesi tam atriyoventriküler blok gibi ciddi kardiyak komplikasyonlarla sonuçlanabilmektedir. Tanı genellikle bal alımı hikayesiyle konur. Bu vakada tam atriyoventriküler blok ve akselere nodal ritm ile ilişkili deli bal zehirlenmesini tanımlandı.
