Several cases of poisoning have been reported due to intentional ingestion, producing dose-dependent clinical manifestations, chiefly targeting the lungs and kidneys. However, only a few cases have been reported in pregnancy. We report mortality due to paraquat-induced lung injury in a young pregnant woman, in whom the poisoning occurred following the ingestion of paraquat-contaminated soil as part of pregnancy-induced pica. The case underscores the critical need for early recognition and intervention.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijpm.ijpm_957_24","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]],"date-time":"2026-09-04T16:03:19Z","timestamp":1788537799000},"page":"520-522","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Paraquat
