Abstract
Ricin is an extremely potent toxin derived from the seeds of Ricinus communis (castor bean plant). We report the case of a 19-year-old who ingested approximately 50 seeds of R. communis in a suicide attempt. The patient was promptly transferred to a facility where endoscopic removal of the seeds was performed. Subsequently, activated charcoal was administered. The ingestion of castor seeds was confirmed by the presence of ricinine, a secondary compound in castor beans alongside ricin. The patient survived the intoxication without sequelae.
