Ulcerating Ileocolitis in Severe Amatoxin Poisoning [PDF]

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, 2015
Amatoxin poisoning is still associated with a great potential for complications and a high mortality. While the occurrence of acute gastroenteritis within the first 24 hours after amatoxin ingestion is well described, only very few descriptions of late gastrointestinal complications of amatoxin poisoning exist worldwide.
