dc.description.abstractA 50 year old nonsmoker female patient with respiratory complaints including phlegm andeffort-related dyspnea admitted to the hospital. Anamnesis pointed out neither occupationalnor hobby-related exposures. However, she mentioned several intense tear gas exposures, anddescribe dyspnea and wheezing right after these exposures. Computed tomography of the lungshowed patchy areas of consolidation and ground glass opacity. Pulmonary function testsrevealed an FEV1/FVC ratio of 67%. Chlorobenzylidene malononitrile (CS) gas relatedpulmonary involvement was evident due to the lack of lesions on previous radiographs,improvement of her complaints and respiratory function test, and regression of theparenchymal lesions after ceasing the exposure. This case is presented to emphasize theimportance of taking detailed anamnesis of the patient and to demonstrate the negative impactsof physical and social environment on human health, and more specifically to suggest that theriot control gases used are not as harmless as believed.en_US
