Abstract
Aluminum phosphide (ALP) poisoning is one of the most common and lethal poisonings with no antidote available till now. Inhalation or ingestion of ALP leads to the production of phosphine gas when exposed to moisture. We here report an adolescent female with alleged consumption of ALP available as celphos tablet, followed by severe metabolic acidosis and cardiogenic shock. Rapid timely initiation of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation leads to intact neurological outcome and survival. Timely referral to higher center with extracorporeal life support facility is a key.
