We encountered a 12-year-old girl, who had contracted food-borne botulism, and subsequently suffered from obstinate constipation for more than half a year. Even on hospital day 122, Clostridium botulinum and its toxin were detected in her stool specimens. The potency of the toxin of the blood serum sampled before treatment was 20 mouse minimum lethal dose per ml. The toxin in the blood had a molecular size equivalent to that of type A botulinum neurotoxin. On hospital day 250, the patient's serum detoxified type A neurotoxin. We confirmed that the patient had food-borne botulism caused by C. botulinum type Ab, followed by intestinal colonization-type botulism.
我们遇到一名12岁女孩,她感染了食源性肉毒中毒,随后出现顽固性便秘达半年多。甚至在住院第122天时,在她的粪便标本中仍检测出肉毒梭菌及其毒素。治疗前采集的血清毒素效价为每毫升20个小鼠最小致死剂量。血液中的毒素分子大小与A型肉毒杆菌神经毒素相当。在住院第250天时,患者血清对A型神经毒素进行了解毒。我们证实该患者患有由Ab型肉毒梭菌引起的食源性肉毒中毒,随后发展为肠道定植型肉毒中毒。
