Workers exposed to trichloroethylene (TCE) rarely show severe generalized skin disorders and accompanying hepatitis which resemble drug hypersensitivities. The disorders are completely different from solvent-induced irritating contact dermatitis, and their serious consequences have become one of the critical occupational health

Multiple genetic and environmental etiologies have been implicated in the pathogenesis of idiopathic Parkinson disease. Recent observations have suggested an association between chronic exposure to trichloroethylene (TCE) and development of clinical parkinsonism. Animal models of TCE exposure have shown nigrostriatal

Findings from epidemiologic studies of trichloroethylene (TCE) exposure and liver cancer have been inconsistent. To quantitatively evaluate this association and to examine sources of heterogeneity, we conducted a meta-analysis of occupational studies of TCE exposure and liver/biliary tract cancer. We
