Neuropathy in a petrol sniffer.

D M Hall, J Ramsey, M S Schwartz, D Dookun.   

Abstract

A 4 year old boy developed a profound motor neuropathy after repeated deliberate inhalation of petroleum vapour. The condition was characterised by extreme slowing of the nerve conduction velocity. He made a gradual recovery over six months. The neuropathy was attributed to the N-hexane component of petroleum.
