Percutaneous toxicity of Paraquat has been widely believed to be of little clinical significance in our country. But we experienced a patient seemed to die from the effect of percutaneous absorption of paraquat, This is probably the first report about the fatal case of agricaltual worker using paraquat in usual way in our country. Although we found 4 similar case reports in foreign countries. We thought this fatal case of paraquat poisoning in agricultual use was a part of iceburg above the water. So we practiced the mass survey of the health effect by paraquat on agricultual workers (24 male and 51 female).<BR>Pulmonary functions were investigated by spirogram, flowvolume curve and atrial blood gas analysis.<BR>In this report, we analysed the data about 39 farmers using paraquat during more than 3 years and 36 control farmers in age from 41 to 59. There were no significant differences in the parametersthat seemed to detect the impairment of large air way. But we found a tendency of decreasing in value of the parameters of small air way in paraquat group than control. Values of the maximum respiratory flow rate at 25% of vital capacity per height (V25/h) decreased significantry (P<0.05) in non-smoking farmers using paraquat than control. The result showed that chronic agricaltual use of paraquat gave some adverse effect on small airways of farmers.
