    AbstractWe present the case of a worker who was accidentally exposed (inhalational and dermal routes) to the chemicals dimethylacetamide and ethylenediamine for 90 minutes in a confined space. Clinical effects included delirium, hallucinations, skin burns, cellulitis, bilateral conjunctivitis, hepatitis, secondary coagulopathy, rhabdomyolysis, and a grade 2 esophagitis. Urinary monomethylacetamide levels 6 days after the exposure were 61 ppm.
