Bracken poisoning


Ingestion of a large amount of bracken for a short period results in hypoplasia (pan-myelophthisis) of the bone marrow and progressive acute bleeding, leading to death. Ingestion of a small amount for a long period causes tumor formation in the urinary tract, inducing chronic hematuria. (register No. 2015).
