Veno-occlusive disease in a fetus caused by pyrrolizidine alkaloids of food origin.

Abstract

We report the occurrence of veno-occlusive disease in a preterm neonate who was symptomatic with hepatomegaly and ascites and was delivered by caesarean section for threatening fetal asphyxia and died shortly afterwards. Post mortem examination revealed veno-occlusive disease typical for pyrrolizidine alkaloid poisoning. The content of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in the liver could be confirmed. Analysis of a herbal mixture which was used for cooking in the family revealed high amounts of the respective alkaloids clarifying the source of the poison and the causal relationship.
