This study was conducted for evaluation of adverse health effects of occupational exposure to PCBs among a group of workers employed at electrical transformers reparing workshop at Zagazig City. Where 40 exposed subjects were examined in addition to a matched control group [N = 60]. The exposed group showed a statistically higher prevalence of neuromuscular disorders. Chronic skin lesions, and some eyes disorders when compared with the control group. The PCB-exposed group showed a significant impaired liver enzymes as well as higher mean valuesof lipid profile than the control group.
