Ibis \'~f o t__ \ I Or. Hill V. Herd Kai Mr. Karl Parka Paga 2. 1964. showed lnprovseent of tha caphalirt flocculation Hut an alanratloa la the thymol turbidity. I understand that It was about thla tlna that ba wu waved from exposure to thaoa chemical*. On Sapteaber 6, 1964 tha serum hu noted a* being vary cbyloua and It wes thought that perhaps thla was because Mr. Parka was on an ulcar dlat. Because of tbe decided drop in hla thymol turbidity, it was decided to wait until tbs tlae for tha next specloan to asks a further check which, an you will note, was practically within tha normal rang*. Our teste ore such chat 1 oust acres with you chat thla is indeed an obscure case. Certainly, if tha liver function teats had rwaalned abnormal, it would be well to consider the possibility that be was receiving same toxic absorption fraa chemicals with which ha was working. Inasmuch as they did not remain abnormal and inseauch os his liver at operation, did not show any par ticular abnormalities, tha question of cause is certainly not clear. In answer to your question regarding the toxicity of vinyl chloride end vinylldene, it baa been our experience that they ora hepatotoxios when exposure la prolonged and high in amount. This is particularly true in tha individual who is an alcoholic or who bos had a hepatitis fra aaxa source. Tbs reason that Tha B.f.Coodrlch Compony dace liver function toots on those indi viduals la that knowing the possible toxicity of the materials with which ebay are working, ovary effort is mads industrially hygftna visa to keep tbe ajqpcaures within acceptable eaoanta. In reality, the toots ora node to check the efficiency of tbe protective equipment. To the best of ay knowledge, in this area we hare not bad any other particularly abnormal findings. On occasions we hove removed individuals fra possible exposure because of having abnormal liver fanctlca tests resulting from ether cnees. Of course, this la a protective aseeure for tbe in dividual. Key 1 suggest that for farther information, you discuss this natter with Br. John Creech, the principal B.f.Coodrlch physician at our Louisville Blent. This is an into.-* sting case. Thank you very ouch far calling it to our attention. 1 bops that Mr. Harks will progress satisfactorily under your care. Sincerely yours. i M. 0. i Rex H. Wilton, K. D. cci Or.
