Ackee apple fruit is a native fruit to Jamaica and some parts of west Africa. Its toxicity known as "Jamaican vomiting sickness" dates back to the nineteenth century. However, there is a dearth of reported published data on toxicity from Nigeria where it is popularly known in the southwest as "ishin." We report a case series of eight previously well Nigerian siblings who presented at various intervals after ingestion of roasted seeds and aril of the ackee fruit.
西非荔枝果是牙买加和西非部分地区的本土水果。其毒性被称为“牙买加呕吐病”，可追溯到19世纪。然而，在尼日利亚，这种水果在西南部地区俗称“伊申”，但关于其毒性的公开报道数据却很少。我们报告了一系列病例，八名之前健康的尼日利亚兄弟姐妹在食用了烤过的西非荔枝果种子和假种皮后，在不同时间出现了症状。
