Abstract |
MD thesis. Part 1: industrial uses of cadmium, clinical and biological symptoms, physiopathology. Part 2: literature survey of liver damage in human pathology and animal experiments. Part 3: animal experiments; here, by using optical and electron microscopy, the exact nature and extent of hepatic cell impairment due to poisoning of short duration can be ascertained. Nothing was observed by optical microscopy, whereas tissue examination by electron microscopy disclosed, on the 60th day, the presence of numerous intranuclear inclusions, of leafy aspect, which would lead one to suspect lipid changes, as well as large zones of cytoplasmic necrosis. |
