Organophosphate-induced delayed neuropathy
Organophosphate-induced delayed neuropathy (OPIDN), also called organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy (OPIDP), is a neuropathy caused by killing of neurons in the central nervous system, especially in the spinal cord, as a result of acute or chronic organophosphate poisoning.
A striking example of OPIDN occurred during the 1930s Prohibition Era when thousands of men in the American South and Midwest developed arm and leg weakness and pain after drinking a "medicinal" alcohol substitute. The drink, called "Ginger Jake," contained an adulterated Jamaican ginger extract containing tri-ortho-cresyl phosphate (TOCP) which resulted in partially reversible neurologic damage. The damage resulted in the limping "Jake Leg" or "Jake Walk" which were terms frequently used in the blues music of the period. Europe and Morocco both experienced outbreaks of TOCP poisoning from contaminated abortifacients and cooking oil, respectively.〔Morgan (1978); Segalla, Spencer (2011), "The 1959 Moroccan Oil Poisoning and US Cold War Disaster Diplomacy," Journal of North African Studies. Available online at http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/13629387.2011.610118〕
OPIDN can be induced by diisopropylfluorophosphate, which is used for this purpose as an experimental agent. There is no specific treatment. Regular physiotherapy may help. Recovery is often incomplete.
