pubmed:abstractText |
Taxus species, commonly referred to as yew plants, have the reputation of being inordinately toxic. Case reports which chronicle human near-fatal yew berry ingestions and countless fatalities in livestock present a sober profile to the treating toxicologist. Very often, a limited number of adverse reports influence decisions on all exposures to that potential poison. The objective of this investigation was to profile the toxicity of exposures to Taxus spp and determine what percentage of exposures were associated with significant morbidity.
