Abstract

Little has been written about infant botulism in the emergency medicine literature, despite increasing references in the pediatric journals. We describe three cases diagnosed at The Children's Hospital in Denver, Colorado, over an 8-month period. A review of the literature follows, to discuss the clinical manifestations, differential diagnosis, diagnostic workup and treatment of the disease.
