The work of Thompson et al1 presents findings in nine Utah patients with infant botulism. In contrast to several other authorities who failed to demonstrate Botulobacillas botulinus in infants of the same age without evidence of clinical disease, Thompson et al1 report a significant number of positive stool cultures in infants who showed no evidence of

Botulism occurring in patients with wounds has been thought of as a rare disease. A patient with a lacerating wound of his hand and wrist and an avulsion of his fourth finger developed diplopia, dizziness, and slurred speech one week later, followed by generalized weakness and difficulty in swallowing.

Botulism is a rare disease with 4 naturally occurring syndromes: foodborne botulism is caused by ingestion of foods contaminated with botulinum toxin, wound botulism is caused by Clostridium botulinum colonization of a wound and in situ toxin production, infant botulism is caused by intestinal colonization and toxin production, and adult intestinal ...

Botulinum toxin is the most potent toxin known to humans and as little as 100 ng can be lethal. The toxin blocks peripheral cholinergic neurotransmission at the neuromuscular junction and cholinergic autonomic nervous system by introducing an endopeptadase enzyme into the presynaptic side of the synapse.

Botulism has not traditionally been considered as occurring in infants under one year of age because they generally do not ingest foods potentially containing preformed Clostridium botulinum toxin. We report a case of infantile botulism in a 3 1/2 month old infant who presented as a "floppy baby," and discuss the probable pathobiology involved.
