Article Title: A case of adult intestinal toxemia botulism during prolonged hospitalization in an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant recipient
Abstract: We report a laboratory-confirmed case of adult intestinal toxemia botulism in an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) recipient. Onset of symptoms occurred within the hospitalized setting, making this case particularly unique. Botulism may have arisen because of significant intestinal disruption and compromise, and not directly from immune compromise. ©2018 Oxford University Press.All right reserved.
