一个显然很好女婴出生足月提出的迹象和症状提示急性发作全身性软瘫在年龄3个月。临床表现为下运动神经元型肌无力；详细的检查导致诊断继发于肉毒中毒的神经肌肉连接障碍。进一步的测试证实肉毒中毒是由蜂蜜引起的。婴儿接受特异性抗梭状芽胞杆菌抗体治疗；她恢复得很好，现在生长发育正常。
An apparently well baby girl born at term was presented with signs and symptoms suggestive of acute onset of generalised floppiness at the age of 3 months. Clinically, the baby had lower motor neuron type of muscle weakness; detailed investigation lead to the diagnosis of neuromuscular junction disorder secondary to botulism toxicity. Further tests confirmed the botulism toxicity secondary to honey ingestion. The baby was treated with specific anticlostridium antibodies; she recovered remarkably, now growing and developing normally.
