Delayed Zinc Phosphide Toxicosis in a Dog
This is the first report detailing a confirmed case of zinc phosphide toxidrome and acute liver failure in a dog. A retrospective study of potential exposures suggested good outcomes; however, this report demonstrates that even when signs appear limited to the gastrointestinal tract at presentation, ingestion of zinc phosphide should be aggressively monitored and treated.
