Systemic Botulism Toxicity Caused by Pyloric Botox Injection to Treat Gastroparesis

Systemic botulism resulting from therapeutic Botox (OnabotulinumtoxinA) injection has been rarely reported, and never in the context of pylorus injection to treat gastroparesis. We report the case of a 27-year-old female with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy who developed severe systemic botulism t...

description Systemic botulism resulting from therapeutic Botox (OnabotulinumtoxinA) injection has been rarely reported, and never in the context of pylorus injection to treat gastroparesis. We report the case of a 27-year-old female with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy who developed severe systemic botulism toxicity following the intrapyloric injection of 100 units of Botox to treat gastroparesis. The patient eventually made a full recovery.
