Human intoxication following inhalation exposure to synthetic jet lubricating oil.

Montgomery MR, Wier GT, Zieve FJ, Anders MW.

A previously healthy member of an aircraft flight crew was acutely incapacitated during flight with neurologic impairment and gastrointestinal distress. His clinical status returned to normal within 24 hr. The etiology of his symptoms was related to an inhalation exposure to aerosolized or vaporized synthetic lubricating oil arising from a jet engine of his aircraft.
