2) 31 cases (48.4%) came in the hospital within 12 hours af:er ingestion and 16 cases(25. 5%) came in the hospital within 2 to 7 days.
3) Vinegar was used most frequently as corrosive agent, showing 32 cases(50.0%) and lye and hydrochloric acid next in order.
4) The. moment of ingestion was suicidal atempt in 45 ca s(70. 3%) and misdrinking in 19 roses (45.3%).
