Abstract
A 45‐year‐old woman was diagnosed as having the unclassified form of botulism. Her intestines may have been predisposed to colonization with Clostridium botulinum because of a jejunoileal bypass procedure that had been done several years earlier. One other similar case has been reported.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
