Chemical Pneumonitis due to Accidental Inhalation of Benzene: A Case Report
Faouzia Kambouche, Osama Salih Mohammed
Abstract: Acute inhalation of benzene occurs rarely and may cause toxicity which further leads to lethal reactions if untreated. Benzene is a color-less, flammable liquid with a sweet odor and it evaporates quickly while exposed to air. It is a component of crude oil, gasoline, and cigarette smoke, etc. There is a chance for occupational exposure since the continuing presence of benzene in the industry as solvent s and glues. It can be absorbed in the body through inhalation, ingestion, or Skin contact; however, is an important route of exposure.
