Besides hydrofluoric acid and selenious acid, systemic toxicities of acid ingestion can occasionally occur. However, hematuria is a rare systemic toxicity reported in caustic poisoning. Objectives: To describe a case of a one-year-old girl who accidentally ingested liquid formic acid. Methods: This patient had severe local corrosive effects including a compromised upper respiratory tract and developed gross hematuria during the hospital admission. Results: Hematuria could be a consequence of acid ingestion. Conclusions: Significant hematuria can be a systemic effect of acid ingestion, but in this case was self-limiting.Mahidol UniversityBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologyHematuria, an unusual systemic toxicity, in formic acid ingestion: A case reportShort SurveySCOPUS10.5372/1905-7415.1002.481
