Abstract：
Silver-containing products have been used for medicinal purposes since antiquity. Throughout the ages and indeed up until the present time, silver has been employed with the hopes of treating a myriad of diseases including the common cold, skin problems, infections, and even cancer. However, silver has no known biological role in human physiology, and taking silver may lead to adverse reactions. The better-known adverse reactions of silver include argyria, or a gray-blue cutaneous discoloration, which is a known effect of silver accumulation. Additionally renal or hepatic injury may also be experienced. Reports of neurological adverse reactions are rare, however, and the extant medical literature contains very few descriptions of such cases. We report herein a case of a 70 year old man who presented with seizures as the sole manifestation of silver toxicity after self-medicating with colloidal silver.
摘要：
含银产品自古以来一直用于医疗目的。古往今来，直到现在，白银被用来治疗包括普通感冒在内的无数疾病，皮肤问题,感染,甚至癌症。然而,银在人体生理学中没有已知的生物学作用，服用银可能导致不良反应。众所周知的银的不良反应包括银，或者灰蓝色皮肤变色，这是银积累的已知效应。此外,还可能经历肾或肝损伤。神经系统不良反应的报告很少见，然而,现有的医学文献对这种情况的描述很少。我们在此报告了一例70岁的男子，该男子在使用胶体银自我治疗后，癫痫发作是银毒性的唯一表现。
