- W2470788313 abstract "Background: Jatropha curcas (Physic nut; Hindi Jungle Erandi) is commonly known with the name of pignon d'Inde in Mauritius. It is planted in Mauritius just because of one common myth that it keeps all the bad evils away from the house. Though all parts of the plant are poisonous, but its seeds are claimed to be highly poisonous. Breakthrough of pignon d'Inde poisoning occurred in the year 2003, where total of 11 cases were admitted on the same day with gastrointestinal symptoms in one of the biggest hospital in Mauritius. Aim: In this article, we have tried to discuss the details related to the pignon d'Inde poisoning, clinical manifestations and its management. Methods:Five year data of pignon d'Inde poisoning was collected between 2002 till 2006 admitted in the pediatric unit of flacq hospital ,Mauritius. In the year 2003, where total of 11 cases of pignon d'Inde poisonings were reported ,7 children came on the same day with gastrointestinal manifestations. Results: All the children were treated symptomatically. They were kept under observation for 24 hours and were discharged thereafter. Conclusion: Though most children who ingest Jatropha curcus seeds do not suffer much harm; however, health care providers must recognize, assess, and manage the exposures causing serious injuries and initiate the appropriate management to minimize the serious consequences that could endanger the lives of the patients. The main objective of this article is to make the practitioners and general population aware of the potential dangers of pignon d'Inde seeds so as to minimize the accidental pediatric poisoning emergencies and financial burden on the community." @default.
