Pediatrics, 1981
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

Infant Botulism: Two Case Reports and Electroneuromyogram Findings
International audienceBotulism is an uncommon severe neuromuscular disorder. We report two recent cases of confirmed infant botulism diagnosed in an 11-week and a 5-month-old infant along with electroneuromyogram (ENMG) findings. Then, we discuss the EMG

Pediatrics In Review, 1996
Infant botulism was first described in 1976. It is caused by Clostridium botulinum, a gram-positive anaerobic bacillus found most commonly in soil and agricultural products. The organism forms spores and during growth and germination releases a potent neurotoxin that is responsible for the illness.

AbstractWe report on 3 infants who had relapse of infant botulism after apparent resolution of clinical symptoms. This group represented 5% of the infants with confirmed infant botulism who were treated at our institution since 1976. The exact cause for these relapses was unclear, but three potential mechanisms are examined.
