  • Title: Wound botulism.
    Author: Hikes DC, Manoli A.
    Journal: J Trauma; 1981 Jan; 21(1):68-71. PubMed ID: 7463544.
    Abstract:
    Wound botulism, a potentially fatal disease, presents with signs and symptoms of food-borne botulism without the gastrointestinal manifestations. All cases have been associated with extremity wounds. The diagnosis is clinical, and aggressive ventilatory support is the cornerstone of successful therapy. A case is reported and the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment are reviewed.
