Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Angiosarcoma, porphyria cutanea tarda, and probable chloracne in a worker exposed to waste oil contamined with 2,3,7,8-tetrechlorodibenzo-p-dioxin

Notes: Sumario: A worker developed angiosarcoma, porphyria cutanea tarda, and skin lesions characteristic of mild chloracne. About 10 years earlier he had been employed at a truck terminal in Saint Louis, Missouri, at a time when it was sprayed with wast oil contamined with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dionxin (TCDD). The occurrence of these three rare conditions in a single exposed worker supports the aetiological relation between environmental exposure to TCDD and the subsequent development of soft tissue sarcoma and porphyria cutanea tardaRelated records: En: British journal of industrial medicine. - London and Margate. - nº 8, August 1993 ; p. 699-703Materia / lugar / evento: Medicina laboral Enfermedades profesionales Residuos Aceites industriales Higiene industrial Ambiente de trabajo Patología Angiosarcoma Dermatología Porfiria cutánea Epidemiología Otros autores: Mac Connell, Rob
