Abstract

What is already known about this topic?: Cordierites frondosus (C. frondosus) is a species of toxic mushroom known to induce symptoms of photosensitive dermatitis.

What is added by this report?: In the months of May and June 2023, a total of four patients in Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, were affected by C. frondosus poisoning, occurring over two distinct incidents. The condition of two patients deteriorated after they were re-exposed to sunlight on the seventh day following the initial poisoning. Separately, an additional two patients reported experiencing a mild, needle-like sensation on areas of their skin exposed to the sun, recorded on the twelfth day subsequent to the poisoning.

What are the implications for public health practice?: Given that symptoms of photosensitive dermatitis, a potential severe consequence of C. frondosus poisoning, can manifest up to a week post-sun exposure, it is advisable to avoid sunlight for a minimum of two weeks following poisoning.

2023 年，中国云南省楚雄彝族自治州发生两起由蕨麻引起的光敏性皮炎疫情。

本专题的已知信息：臭蘑菇（Cordierites frondosus）是一种已知会诱发光敏性皮炎症状的毒蘑菇：2023 年 5 月至 6 月间，云南省楚雄彝族自治州共有 4 名患者出现虫草中毒症状，分别发生在两起不同的事件中。两名患者在初次中毒后的第七天再次暴露于阳光下，病情恶化。另外，还有两名患者在中毒后的第十二天报告说，他们暴露在阳光下的皮肤部位出现了轻微的针刺样感觉：鉴于光敏性皮炎（C. frondosus中毒的潜在严重后果）的症状可在日晒后一周内表现出来，因此建议在中毒后至少两周内避免日晒。
