Abstract
Organophosphorus compounds are chemical agents in widespread use throughout the world, mainly in agriculture. In developing countries organophosphorus (OP) poisoning is a commonly encountered problem. Here we present a rare case of OP poisoning with angioedema as the presenting feature. Prompt treatment of these cases will help in reducing the morbidity and mortality.Keywords
