Unusual calcium oxalate crystals in ethylene glycol poisoning.

W Godolphin, E P Meagher, H D Sanders, J Frohlich.   

Abstract

A patient poisoned with ethylene glycol exhibited the symptoms of (1) hysteria, (2) metabolic acidosis with both a large anion gap and osmolal gap, and (3) crystalluria. However, the shape of the urinary crystals was prismatic and resembled hippurate rather than the expected dipyramidal calcium oxalate dihydrate. X-ray crystallography positively identified them as calcium oxalate monohydrate.
